TODAY IS...I CAN CROCHET DAY
The origin of crochet is up for grabs. China? Turkey? North Africa? The word "crochet" comes from the French work croc (meaning hook), but there is no record of this needlework before the 1800s. Written instructions were being published in the 1840s, but most patterns were handed down through family and friends. Girls were taught to crochet holding the hook like a pencil because it was considered graceful. They know today that holding the hook in the palm of your hand cuts down on carpal tunnel problems.

A priest walked into a barber shop in Washington, D.C. After he got his haircut, he asked how much it would be. The barber said, "No charge. I consider it a service to the Lord."
The next morning, the barber came to work and there were 12 prayer books and a thank you note from the priest in front of the door.
Later that day, a police officer came in and got his hair cut. He then asked how much it was. The barber said, "No charge. I consider it a service to the community."

The Lord is faithful in all his words, and gracious in all his deeds
Psalm 145:13
The love of God surrounds us
Like the air we breathe around us—
As near as a heartbeat,
as close as a prayer,
And whenever we need Him,
He’ll always be there
