This week, Becoming Me is hosting a Blog Mission Tour. She writes, "Create a mission statement for your blog. It does not have to be long. Just write the purpose behind why you blog and what you want your blog to be."
I decided to begin a blog at the urgings of my blogging son and two blogging friends. As a successfully married woman, with two grown children and seven grandchildren who are all Christ followers, I have experienced much. I'm a retired high school teacher, I'm a Christian, I'm an active member of Flamingo Road Church, and I love to read--particularly Christian Fiction. All of these joys, I intend to post.So my mission statement is:
To share with my family and friends and friends-to-be the essence of me: the joy of living, the happiness of family, the fun of having a relationship with the God of the universe in the hope that some may choose to follow Him.
Ahhhh....blush, blush. Thank you. I like your mission stmt and I LOVE your blog!
