Painting to be Auctioned for Missions

This painting is up for bids:




This 16"x20" acrylic painting on canvas of Coconut Beach in Brazil is being auctioned off for missions. I am the director of our church's VBS and every year the girls and boys have a contest to raise money for missions. This year their offering will be given for building a church that our church helped plant in Coqueiro, Brazil. My husband, my pastor and his wife, and many of our friends have been on mission trips to the area. To place a bid for the painting, leave a comment of your bid amount beneath the photo on my facebook page (click here). Highest bid placed by midnight Saturday night, June 11, 2011, wins the painting. 100% of the proceeds from the painting will be sent to Brazil for building the church. VBS begins Monday, June 13. Of course the proceeds of this auction will be added to the GIRLS contributions! This painting based on a photo taken in Brazil by my husband while he was on his last mission trip to the area in 2009.

One of my favorite places to visit on trips back home is Blanchard Springs, AR. I enjoy the caverns and I especially enjoy the beauty of Mirror Lake:

Hummers

This spring we are seeing more hummingbirds in our backyard than ever before. I'm thoroughly enjoying the opportunities to try to capture them with my camera!
