I love Snickers bars! So rich and chocolatey and with caramel and nouget and peanuts. Just delicious. Well, here they cost about $1.30 each.

Why God, Why?
Tuesday, 18 October 2011
Ever said that? Ever heard anyone say that? We all want to know why things happen. But when it comes to God, don’t ask why. Depending on what has happened in your life that you are questioning God about, there are two reasons to not ask WHY: 1) You will probably not understand why if

School Supplies Purchased! – Video
Friday, 14 October 2011
Look over Susan’s shoulder as she purchases much needed school supplies, with the help of our little friend Doris, for needy children in the Amazon. This is only a small portion of what was purchased. The purchasing, sorting and distribution of all the school supplies took a week to complete.
