Celebrate Life

Psalm 100

Shout joyfully to the Lord, all the earth.
Serve the Lord with gladness;
Come before Him with joyful singing.
Know that the Lord Himself is God;
It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves;
We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.
Enter His gates with thanksgiving
And His courts with praise.
Give thanks to Him, bless His name.
For the Lord is good;
His lovingkindness is everlasting
And His faithfulness to all generations.

This psalm came to life as our church family celebrated life
with a birthday party
 for the families of our Wesley Glen homes for mentally challenged adults.

Songs, hugs, dancing, cakes, chips and dip, fruit, punch, smiles, introductions, praise. . .
Celebration!

I'm so glad we were there.
We were blessed.
