Camp Meeting 2010

Friday, August 27th, 2010

If you attended ‘Happy Home Camp Meeting’ write your story! Or, maybe a story from the other 86 years they have held summer camp meetings. Would love to hear the history of Happy Home Camp Meetings. I attended one night and one morning meeting for the first time this year. It was wonderful!

Praying Pretzels

Saturday, January 5th, 2008

Have any of you made these? Thought it might be good idea with the football playoffs and Super Bowl XLII coming up? Also ,a great idea for snacks for our church gatherings . Children as well as adults love them.

Pretzels were first made by monks who gave them as rewards to children who had learned their prayers. The special twisted shape looks like the folded arms of a child praying. The word pretzel means reward.

• 2 loaves (16oz) frozen whole wheat bread dough, thawed
