Walk Through a European Garden: A Video

    You have had this experience: every once in a while in your lifetime, someone invites you to join them for an outing, a day trip, a picnic, a journey and the experience tends to become a salient memory.  It's strikingly memorable because everything conforms - the weather, the companionship, the conversation, the coffee time.  While in Germany, a friend from church invited us to join her and another friend to travel to the gardens of Mainau Island, located on Lake Konstanz, Germany.    It was rose season.  The skies were deep blue that day and the lake was calmly reflective.  The temperature was perfect.  They extended I Peter 4:9 to us:  "Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling."  We gratefully accepted and that excursion became a memory board to which we attached the fellowship of belonging and knowingness;  belonging because we were invited and knowingness because the invitation was intentional. It was a fine day.  We want to share this day on Mainau Island with you.  This video reminds us that extending the slightest hospitality to those around us could become a memory-board day for someone!   Enjoy!
  
Keep looking up!  
And, thank you for stepping on our steppingstones!
