Lunch BunchThis is what they have
on their website......this is what
we saw... And 8 went on the Tulip Festival part…even tho most of the tulips were wiped out in a big rain-wind storm and most of the remaining ones were past their prime, it is always a precious time to ride thru the 50 acres of the 500,000 other flowers in addition to the 450,000 tulips, trees , shrubs, statues and displays.
Thanks to Kathie and Jennie for driving the smoother new golf carts they just got 2 months ago.
It’s been a supercalifragilisticexpialido cious day!
Tammy, thank you for arranging it. And, again , thank your wonderful husband for buying all 19 lunches!!


Thank you, Kathie for

** *I am so thankful for The Plan of Salvation and the Atonement of Jesus Christ that makes this
Great Plan operational.
At the end of this May 3, 2026I pray you have had a restful, peaceful, and spiritual Sabbath Day...
I share these truths as my testimony to you...
Heavenly Father lives and knows us each by name. He loves us and wants us to return to Him and Heavenly Mother when we leave this mortal existence. He loves us just as we are at this very moment.
*** *** ***Jesus Christ came to earth as The Only Begotten of the Father and fulfilled the Atonement. He is the Redeemer of all.
“An omnicompetent God leaves all mortals free to choose, but how grateful we should be that God chose long, long ago to rescue and to resurrect all His children through the Atonement of His Son. Nevertheless, some reject and many are indifferent to these and other divine beckonings, mostly because they are too caught up in the cares of the world. They are strangers to the Savior, who is far from the thoughts and intents of their hearts.”Neal A Maxwell
How Choice a Seer!
*** *** ***I am thankful for the guidance of the Holy Ghost as the third member of the Godhead. Walt said to me once: "I look forward to thanking the Holy Ghost in person when I get to Heaven. I don't think we give Him enough credit for all He does."
*** *** *** *** ***Joseph Smith was foreordained to be the Prophet of the Restoration. He is the Restorer of all things.
The Bible is "the Word of God as far as it is translated correctly" and is a Testament of the Divinity of Jesus Christ.*** *** ***The Book of Mormon is the Word of God and is Another Testament of Jesus Christ. It is the most correct book of any book on earth.*** *** ***Of these truths I testify in the Name of Jesus Christ, amen.Eileen PetersenMay 3, 2026 "Time moves slowly, but passes quickly...
