Keep inviting and keep inviting. Sometimes it takes quite a while to develop relationships. We've been here for six years and just this past year I feel like we are really making connections and relationships.<br /><br />And the only way Preacher Man would have let the girls do dance is if it was modest! We were so blessed to have an amazing studio withing 15 miles.Chellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14264109854852787464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3492627641698528246.post-3513916828487611702012-11-10T14:16:58.335-06:002012-11-10T14:16:58.335-06:00Thanks for sharing that deal--I'm gonna have t...Thanks for sharing that deal--I'm gonna have to check it out! I appreciate these positive "thanksgivings" as well. We recently moved and I'm trying to be thankful for the local congregation but it seems everyone is so busy and they are out of the habit of fellowship. We have invited several people over (many of them multiple times) and many have come although some have never found/made time and in nearly a year's time, no one has invited us over! Maybe the Lord is simply using us to remind them of the importance of hospitality (and telling me to practice it without grudging!) but it is discouraging and I find it hard to develop "sincere, unfeigned love for the brethren" when there is no fellowship outside of services.<br /><br />And I love that the girls are able to do ballet modestly! We found a delightful studio nearby that our 5yod was able to go to a camp this summer and I so appreciated their standards.Shonyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04310547848215492736noreply@blogger.com
