Many of us have someone we emulate; someone we look up to. One of those people for me and for many at our church is moving to Oregon. She's getting on in years and has no 'family' around her. She is blessed in that she has sons and daughters-in-law who want her to move in with them. Why? She is a dynamo of a lady.
This saint went on a missionary trip just a year or so ago to Africa. She knew she couldn't do much being in her eighty's, but she knew she could do something. She helped by planting gardens. She is the most cheerful ole' gal I've ever run into and she is quite the encourager too. She has the heart of an evangelist and loves to witness to people; anywhere-anytime.
At her good-bye party we had this picture taken with her. She, by the way, is one of the original members of our church. She has been faithfully attending for forty-seven years. May I even be a glimpse of what she is.

How wonderful to have had a woman like that in your life. I hope things go well for her in her new home.
