They are cherished by all those living in the community. I am glad to hear that they will be rebuilding. The quilt is a wonderful idea and sentiment.<br /><br />Thank you for visiting my blog and leaving such kind comments...I am off to explore your lovely blog. The cherry blossom background is my favorite.

This story of the church is just as important as any other. It has been a place of comfort and joy for generations.<br /><br />The thing that I learned from losing what I thought was everything, is that we do not lose what is most important. The sun still rises, the stars and moon still shine, the birds still dart from tree to tree. When people suffer, others step forward in any way they can to help rebuild. From loss comes love. This is why my favorite quote is<br /><br />Barn's burnt down --<br />now<br />I can see the moon.<br /><br />by Mizuta Masahide<br /><br />Hugs,<br />ZuzuAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8164904826222086589.post-77423161680547522492010-01-24T07:54:53.837-05:002010-01-24T07:54:53.837-05:00Sherry,

You really have a beautiful way of writing, I too could picture the placement of the door & the FOTB with his chainsaw cutting a new one. Do you write for the town paper or anything? Anyway, it seems the more the suffering the greater the human spirit rises to the occasion.LisaLisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08100504828452604755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8164904826222086589.post-90047910712122918322010-01-24T00:11:14.475-05:002010-01-24T00:11:14.475-05:00Thanks for your visit to my corner of the world. ...Thanks for your visit to my corner of the world. Sorry to hear about the church. It's always sad when a bit of history is lost to us. Although it will be rebuilt for the benefit of the people, it won't be the same old church. Wishing you a most wonderful day.
