They will offer tours of their vineyard (during the heart of the picking season!), and we can enjoy their hospitality and some of their wines in their beautiful tasting room. A deli tray lunch will also be provided.

For the last several weeks we have been talking about prayer. Prayer is a powerful tool, and always available to us. By prayer we place ourselves, and our concerns before God. By prayer we claim God’s promises, and lay hold of God’s provisions. By prayer we move the earth. “More things are accomplished in prayer than we can imagine. “ For that reason Jesus said that we ought always to pray, and not to “faint,” or give up. (Luke 18:1) “Prayer changes things.” Prayer changes the one who prays. Prayer changes you. Prayer changes me. Our prayer is sincere when we are willing to be a part of the answer.
