Hi Siestas! I’m writing this while visiting one of my baby grandsons. I have found a whole new level of delight, watching the world unfold before his sweet, young eyes. Whimsy and wonder, sheer gut-wrenching joy in the simplest of new experiences. The giggles, unencumbered, the wide-eyed enchanting outlook on life. He teaches me, he inspires me, and I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that one of my main purposes in grandparenting will be sharing our awe in the wonders and majesty of Jesus. Generation after generation. So…

“God is magnificent; He can never be praised enough. There are no boundaries to His greatness. Generation after generation stands in awe…” Psalm 145:3,4 – The Message
I pray that for you and yours as well…total awe at His greatness and goodness. May the simple, profound love of Jesus pour over each of you as you continue to meditate and memorize His perfect Word.

Hello,
Will there be a Siesta Scripture memory team for 2019? Do you know where the Celebration will be in 2020?
Ladies from my church have participated twice and we wanted to get ready for it.
Thank you.
Hi Karen,
We actually won’t be doing the Siesta Celebration this year. So sorry about that!
Blessings!
