Daily Inspiration – December 15
Hospitality is not the idea of a few random folks. It’s God’s idea and a great one at that. It is kingdom work. Be welcoming. There’s no greater joy. — Mary Graham (Contagious Joy)

Mary Graham’s Great Adventure
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) … Read entire article »

Mary’s Blog: When I Was A Teenager…
Click to play
When I was a teenager, my sister made it possible for me to go to an event. Although I’d grown up in church, THAT SINGLE EVENT turned my life completely around. I’ve never been the same. I didn’t even know what I needed; I just knew something was missing. My big sister didn’t know either but God used her in an amazing way. She found out about that event for teenagers and … Read entire article »

Mary’s Blog: Photo Shoot
One of the most amazing and enjoyable parts of Women of Faith is that we really love each other and love hanging out together. Most of us have known one another for years and, as in any relationship, we’ve had our ups and downs, ins and outs, highs and lows. But, through it all, we absolutely love being together―whether it’s at a Women of Faith event, a casual meeting, a spontaneous cup of coffee, a … Read entire article »

Mary’s Blog: We’re Headed to Rochester!
We’re going to Rochester tomorrow to spend the weekend. Here’s what I love about Rochester: There’s a group of women who used to join us in Hartford every year. They LOVE Women of Faith and asked us every year to PLEASE come to Rochester. I, quite honestly, didn’t want to be discouraging but I thought, there is NO way. We love Hartford and, frankly, I assumed Rochester was just too … Read entire article »

Mary’s Blog: Ethiopia
Ethiopia left me with wonderful memories (and flea bites AND maybe the worst head cold of my life!) It was worth it all.
I actually took the trip at World Vision’s request because it was my boss (Michael Hyatt, CEO of Thomas Nelson) and his wife’s first experience with our long term partner and friends at World Vision. The trip turned out to be for my own benefit. Isn’t that just like God who … Read entire article »

Mary Blogs from Africa – Part 2
Life is a compilation of contrasts. So is Africa―and today was no exception. Several of us on the Women of Faith team are traveling in Rwanda with World Vision and today was amazing.
The early part of the day was delightful; we visited a village where World Vision is working their miracles. Between seeing sponsored children (and those who are yet to have a sponsor) we met six orphaned teenagers who have formed a team … Read entire article »

Mary Blogs from Africa – Part 1
When are interruptions divine? Last night as Marilyn Meberg, Luci Swindoll, Lisa Whelchel and I were making a quick connection in the Nairobi, Kenya airport, we hit a major roadblock which might have been a disaster but instead became a huge blessing in disguise.
We’re in Africa on a trip to see the work of World Vision. Our partnership with them to protect and provide for children all over the world is one of the highlights … Read entire article »
