Artist’s Soul
Our church administrator, Charlotte Dorais, is retiring at the end of the year. Today we are honoring her at our staff Christmas party. Charlotte has served in just about every ministry I have had oversight of through the years I have known her. Her love for Jesus has called her to take up posts outside her comfort zone many times. I just know that love for her God is going to lead her on to even greater adventures now.
She was one of my adult champions when I led the youth ministry (we called ourselves “the Beyonders”). She has worked as a shut-in visitor for the Compassion Ministry and as an artist manager for C.cada. She has been an untiring intercessor and a woman always willing to lend a hand in practical ministry. She is an incredible artist as well as an able administrator. Above all she is a committed friend.
Thank you Charlotte for your love for God and his church. I have written this two stanza Cinquain in your honor. It is entitled
Artist’s Soul
by JE Lillie
Artist’s
Soul, disciplined
By the brush of prayer.
Colors careful mixed until God
Brings forth
Artist’s
Strength, directed
Unafraid of future
Steps into the blank canvas called
His plan.

One Word Photo Challenge: Autumn
Jennifer has challenged us to show our readers autumn with our photos.
You can see lots of fallish photos by clicking the link above.
Here in New England we just passed Columbus Day (which in Massachusets is a statewide day off). It is one of the last days for outdoor activity here in the North East from here on out we are preparing for and expecting winter.
That being said, Amanda (my oldest daughter) , Brenda (my sister) and I took a ride north to do the quintessential Yankee activity on Columbus Day. We went leaf-peeping.
This is the river between Chesterfield and Brattleboro VT.
The Westminster Baptist Church, Westminster MA
We went as far as Bellows Falls Vt. and the world famous Vermont Country Store.
Enjoy the autumn everyone. Snow will be flying soon enough!

Share Your World 2015 Week 38
It’s that time again folks. Cee has asked her questions and we can but answer. My answers to the questions are below and Cee’s other friends have answered HERE. You have only to click on the underlined word and you will be whisked away to Cee-Land a most beautiful place…really!
Here are my answers:
What do you do to make a living or during the day if you are retired. If you are a student what are you studying?
I am the assistant pastor at Cornerstone Church in Winchendon MA. My portfolio includes worship and the arts as well as Prayer and Compassion ministries. To that end I run C. cada a Christian artist’s collaborative. The goal of C.cada is to help people discover, develop and deploy their God-given gifts in the church and in the community.
I am also a founding member of Special Touch R.E.A.C.H. New England a chapter of Special Touch Ministries based out of Wisconsin. The goal of this ministry is to bring the gospel message to the disabled community.
Basically I spend my days meeting and training teams of people to reach other people with the love of Jesus through prayer, compassion and the arts
Have you ever participated in a distance walking, swimming, running, or biking event? Tell your story.
I have done walk- a- thons to raise money for missions. there is no real story there. I walked and people gave me money to give to missionaries. The end. 🙂
What is usually your first thought when you wake up?
“Good morning Lord. Do I really need to get out of bed? It is really warm in here and really cold out there.”
Complete this sentence: Look out behind you, it’s a …
Falling tree! I really don’t know where that came from. It is just the first thing that crossed my mind. No one I know has ever been squashed by a tree. I don’t think I have ever even seen a tree fall.
Bonus question: What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up?
I am grateful that my editor Tracy sent the prologue of my story back complete with edits to be made. Now to work. I am looking forward to the Toy Town Fall Fest which C.cada, Prayer Shawl Ministry and Special Touch R.E.A.C.H. New England are participating in this weekend! I
