Dear Grands,
Ephesians 5:13-14, “But all things become visible when they are exposed by the light,
for everything that becomes visible is light. 14 For this reason it says, ‘Awake, sleeper,
And arise from the dead, And Christ will shine on you.’”
Love you, Sleepers,

Dear Grands,
Proverbs 31:10-31, “An excellent wife, who can find? For her worth is far above jewels.
11 The heart of her husband trusts in her, And he will have no lack of gain.
12 She does him good and not evil All the days of her life.
13 She looks for wool and flax And works with her hands in delight.
14 She is like merchant ships; She brings her food from afar.
15 She rises also while it is still night And gives food to her household And portions to her maidens.
16 She considers a field and buys it; From her earnings she plants a vineyard.
17 She girds herself with strength And makes her arms strong.
18 She senses that her gain is good; Her lamp does not go out at night.
19 She stretches out her hands to the distaff, And her hands grasp the spindle.
20 She extends her hand to the poor, And she stretches out her hands to the needy.
21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household, For all her household are clothed with scarlet.
22 She makes coverings for herself; Her clothing is fine linen and purple.
23 Her husband is known in the gates, When he sits among the elders of the land.
24 She makes linen garments and sells them, And supplies belts to the tradesmen.
25 Strength and dignity are her clothing, And she smiles at the future.
26 She opens her mouth in wisdom, And the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.
27 She looks well to the ways of her household, And does not eat the bread of idleness.
28 Her children rise up and bless her; Her husband also, and he praises her, saying:
29 “Many daughters have done nobly, But you excel them all.”
30 Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain, But a woman who fears the LORD, she shall be praised.
31 Give her the product of her hands, And let her works praise her in the gates.”
Believe me, there is no one like Nana! And your presence yesterday,
really made her day! Thank you for being here to celebrate her day!
We love you all enormously,

Dear Grands,
Psalm 96:1-4, “Sing to the LORD a new song; Sing to the LORD, all the earth.
2 Sing to the LORD, bless His name; Proclaim good tidings of His salvation from
day to day. 3 Tell of His glory among the nations, His wonderful deeds among all
the peoples. 4 For great is the LORD and greatly to be praised; He is to be feared
above all gods.”
Love you all,
Nana & Dado III

Dear Grands,
Psalm 40:4-5, “How blessed is the man who has made the LORD his trust,
And has not turned to the proud, nor to those who lapse into falsehood.
5 Many, O LORD my God, are the wonders which You have done,
And Your thoughts toward us; There is none to compare with You.
If I would declare and speak of them, They would be too numerous to count.”
How blessed we are to belong to the LORD! Of all the gods that are
worshipped throughout the world, our God alone is living and the only
One who raised His Son, Jesus, from the dead!
May His blessings be yours today,
Nana & Dado III

Dear Grands,
Psalm 37:23-26, “The steps of a man are established by the LORD,
And He delights in his way. 24 When he falls, he will not be hurled headlong,
Because the LORD is the One who holds his hand.
25 I have been young and now I am old, Yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken
Or his descendants begging bread. 26 All day long he is gracious and lends,
And his descendants are a blessing.”
All of the above is true! And each of you IS as blessing to us!
Love you each and every one,
Nana & Dado III
