Most of what I have to set our table with, everything from the linens, to the plates, to the serving items I have gotten from thrifts stores and yard sales. It’s amazing what you can find at such a small cost but still make a big impact at meal time. We bought these beautiful salt and pepper shakers at a small antique show for $2.00!!!

Titus 2:3 says that we are to be
"...teachers of good things...".
We believe that part of these good things are practical skills that we all need in every day life to care for our family and neighbors.
One of our primary responsibilities as parents is equip our children with the skills and tools to one day be productive, well rounded adults. Children need to be exposed to many different areas of work. Not only should they know how to work, but they should want to work.
May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us;
establish the work of our hands for us-
yes, establish the work of our hands.
Psalm 90:17
