Last Friday our church had a documentary screening on human-trafficking. It wasn’t our typical relax-over-homemade-pizza-and-TV Friday activity, but we decided to go anyway, reluctant as we were. The video was about 90 minutes long, and afterwards there was a panel of church leaders and members who shared how they were helping in the area and

Home Improvement:
Raise your hand if you relate :) Decluttering Remember that long list of rules to keep, donate and toss? Two Saturdays ago, a certain someone woke me up at 5 am (hint, it wasn’t my sweet husband who loves when I sleep in), so I decided to get started on that long list of decluttering
