Living Paints Ministries

Our staff celebrated Bethie’s birthday at Painting with a Twist.

Evangeline, Mom, Sabrina and Susan.

KMac, Michelle, Mom, Sherry and Jenn.

Diane, Mom, Kimberly and Linda.

Just call her Baby Hawk.

This is the original canvas that we were painting from.

This was not painting by numbers, people!

Evangeline was contemplating all the art with our instructor.

Breakfast treats, coffee, and juice.

Jenn and Sabrina drying the first layer of paint.

Michelle and I are swaying to Friends are Friends Forever.

We’re renaming ourselves Living Paints Ministries.

We were that fabulous.

Note to self: don’t hit the “tab” button ๐Ÿ™‚ Anyway, it looks like you gals had some good times, and those are some mighty fine- looking sunflowers ๐Ÿ™‚

    Jeanne Messer says:

    Beth (Mama Siesta), First of all HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Praying that GOD will reveal HIMself is ways that you have never experienced before! Amanda, What a special idea. I must say I am VERY impressed with how all your pictures turned out. This reminds me of what we did with my Bible Study group in Illinois, where we made “Believe GOD” wreaths. You got the picture of our group holding up their wreaths from First Baptist Church,O’fallon, IL from Tammi Patterson. We made them around Christmas time. I am the one standing in front in blue with a WALKING BOOT on. This is what the picture of ya’ll holding up your paintings reminded me of. It looks like you had some much fun!!! Many more blessings to your group!
    In CHRIST,
    Jeanne
