Who says you can only wear one fabulous pair of high heels at a time? With this adorable jewelry ensemble you can wear one pair on your ears, one around your neck, and one on each foot. (Actually, that comes out to 5 heels, not 5 pairs, since there’s only one shoe on the necklace…think of it as a Cinderella moment.) And, if your feet are happier in flats or fuzzy bunny slippers, you can enjoy the elegance of silver-tone heels with genuine Austrian crystal accents and keep your toes comfy at the same time.
Here’s an idea: It’s just over 6 weeks until Christmas. It’s not too early to start thinking of gifts and stocking stuffers…and this sparkly little set might suit any number of females on your list. Just a thought!

Years after writing a best-selling memoir, Donald Miller went into a funk and spent months sleeping in and avoiding his publisher. One story had ended, and Don was unsure how to start another.
But he gets rescued by two movie producers who want to make a movie based on his memoir. When they start fictionalizing Don’s life for film—changing a meandering memoir into a structured narrative—the real-life Don starts a journey to edit his actual life into a better story. A Million Miles in a Thousand Years details that journey and challenges readers to reconsider what they strive for in life. It shows how to get a second chance at life the first time around.
With great honesty and insight, Don issues a simple and profound challenge: live a better story. As Don opens up his life, struggles, triumphs, and insecurities, he shows you how to do exactly that.
I’ve never been in Donald Miller’s living room, but this book makes me feel that I have. The stories compel, the humor works, and Don’s wisdom stealths its way on to the pages. I already want to re-read it. –Max Lucado

Tomorrow I’m going on a great adventure with my friend Patty. In the seventies/eighties, we traveled almost all over the world―this is our first trip since. Our most adventurous (as in scary) trips were to Northern Ireland, China and (many times) the former Soviet Union.
Next week is the 20th anniversary: the beginning of the death of Communism in the USSR. It was AMAZING NEWS then & now. Tomorrow we’re going to (the former) Leningrad where we were when the wall came down, such a HUGE surprise. And very historic.
I learned so much from Patty. Especially to ‘Never be afraid. Never, ever be afraid.” It’s time I spent a few more days with her. If we almost get arrested for sharing our faith, it will be AWESOME! I leave so much behind. Hard for me to go, but only for 6 days. Sometimes ‘faith barriers’ must be broken. It’s how we learn and grow. From numerous trips Patty’s voice still rings in my head, “Be brave, Mary. Be very brave.” I’m being brave now. = )

“Thank you for this creative solution! I had been praying for a creative idea to bring in more money before attending Women of Faith. My husband has a strong desire to go to Mexico and build homes for the poorest of the poor. He wanted to join a team of builders in March but we needed $500. This will help reach that goal! Thank you!” — Debbie H.
