Hello All

We have few items of business to discuss. I am sad to announce that Susan will be either selling or closing Keepsakes very soon. Please keep her in your prayers as the details are finalized. Therefore, December 1st will be our last crop at Keepsakes. This is also Famjam so we will not be starting until 7:00 that evening. I hope everyone will join us for a wonderful evening and I'm sure a few trips down memory lane. This will also be a great time to finish some last minute Christmas gifts/projects.

Two of our members have generously offered the use of their homes, taking care of scrap night for January and February. The dates are yet to be determined. Hopefully by March we will have new arrangements settled. Please keep this in your prayers as well.

The facility that we had chosen for the retreat is booked through the end of February. Others must have thought it was as great a find as we did. :) This places us back at square one. We are dissappointed but know that God has an even better place for us to use. Due to time restraints we will not be able to have a retreat in January. Keep checking the blog for updates.

Have a great Thanksgiving, remember to take lots of pictures and I hope to see everyone on December 1st.

Thanks,
Lydia

Sad Goodbye

Kim and Mark Nolt and their boys will be leaving on November 16th heading for their new home in Ohio. There will be a farewell gathering at Chris and Caroline Buck's this Friday at 6:30 (children are invited).

We will miss them greatly. Crop night will not be the same without Kim! While we are sad for ourselves, we are happy for them that they will be closer to family. Keep their travels and move in your prayers.

We will miss you!

Lydia
