I've played here
am I first?
wow. I was ....have fun all, I'll check in as I can..given our last day of VBS.
Nice job Sally!
I play here.
I got ahead of myself and played over here
Sally, this was good for me--made me remember something I needed to remember.
I played right here.
I'm actually in the first ten! Here's my appropriately postdated post.
Fiesta Ware
anybody have some to spare?
mompriest you may be first, but i am in the game too. Roots and Wings
yes, thought-provoking. If I can remember how (after a week off) I played here
Ooh, good one...made me do some good reflecting - and I never miss a chance to tell my Israel story. I played here
Wow you all are fast! I thought I would be one of the early birds today!
I played here
Here's my thought-provoking Friday Five!
Talk about timely; thanks, Sally! Could not have been better for where I am this evening (and where I am in my life).
My reflections on the adventure are here
Friday on Thursday. I LOVE it!! I used 126 words when 18 would have done here
It was Friday in the UK when I posted this- honestly it was!!!!
Some great plays so far- truly inspirational!
I too have played here
1. Share a moment/ time of real encouragement in your journey of faith
This year on Mothers' Day I was in another congregation and received a rose (as did all women and girls) as well as a tiny card.
Mine read du behövs which means you are needed and my heart broke because I've been being pushed out of ministry for the last 18 months and this was a real word from God to my heart. I am needed.
2. Do you have a current vision / dream for your work/ family/ministry?
yes (grin)
3.Money is no object and so you will.....
start a retreat centre esp for those who are burnt out in ministry - so they can get back to that point of intimacy with God and allow Him to restore the ability to rest IN Him
4. How do you see your way through the disappointments? What keeps you going?
Hard one this. At times I don't and it's oh so tempting to give up.
God keeps me going. Keeping my eyes on Him and remembering (and reminding myself) that He is my own living Hope is the best way I know!
5. How important are your roots?
No idea. Not that important anyway.
I've got company so first: Happy Birthday! which I missed and second, I am about to take the Lovely Daughter to get her wisdom teeth removed instead of playing the Friday Five, but I have been engaged in a lot of looking back in the several entries entitled Getting Here here. Haven't reached looking forward yet.
Glad this was posted early. I was able to play here before leaving work and heading for the sack. Thanks.
I played BEFORE I hauled myself upstairs to the elliptical. Here it is
Thanks Sally.
I played.
I played!!
Great Friday Five...
I answered the past/present/future here
Yipes! A Friday Five that makes me think????? I'll be playing...later...
Great job with the questions! I had some fun reflecting over at my place.
Happy Birthday RevGals! I played here

You can find my play here
I played.
I played here
Thought provoking questions...my answers may be a work in progress!
I played here
We WestCoasters play later. Mine here.
I really, really, wish we could edit comments
I played even though I am much more focused on the release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
If there is any link in this comment, even if it is a date, it will probably take you to my blog. I am giving up trying to get it "right"
My first time! Here is my response.
So I played here
Late to the party but I'm just feeling tired and spent today. Here's my "play"
Its the afternoon, but I played.
What a thoughtful Friday5.
Good ruminations, Sally. Thanks!
I played here!
This week, the sermon got done first... but I finally played!
Peace,
Mags
Okay...finally got mine done, here .
This is great Sally ... good to remember what I remembered.
I played here
famous people (and not) in my family tree...
I'm having internet connectivity problems today and can't stay connected to the server long enough to play. :(
But I'll enjoy looking at more of yours after I get this problem fixed (Monday probably)! Bye for now!
Just played here
I really enjoyed this one!
I played!
I played here.
Sally, good job! I love that roadsign image. Here's my play.
Running late today, but here are mine.
Well, better late than never I guess...
I'm a day late, but I played here.
I keep logging on hoping that the Preachers' Party might have started...but you're all too busy sleeping off Harry Potter, aren't you?
I guess in a minute procrastination may triumph, and I'll do the Five. Will let you know as and when...but meanwhile, I have a date with Mary Mag ;-)
I was hoping that there would be greenies at the preacher's party. My human doesn't have a Harry Potter book yet, and she's kind of grouchy. I'm just sayin'.
I love this. I played (even though it is Saturday) and I'm new to this so I couldn't figure out how to add a hyper-link =/. But you can find my answers on my blog.
I've done it in celebration of a finished sermon, over here
Very therapeutic :-)
I tried to post the link and messed it up, deleted it, so I will have another go at it. Where is a teenager when you need one? I played here.
