One of the ladies who sings in my church choir has been sending me stories of the church mice who reside in our church building. They are quite entertaining and sometimes downright funny! For example, this story:
Momma mouse was getting food in the kitchen with her baby when the cat pounced in. Snatching up the kid Momma ran for the mousehole but it was obvious she wasn't going to make it. Finally in desperation she whipped around and shouted "Bark, Bark!" at the cat. The cat skidded to a halt and ran away. Momma mouse turned to her baby and said, "You see how important it is to learn a foregin language?"
Every few days, we get a new adventure. The boys look forward to their arrival. Sunday in church I was surprised that one of the mice, Stitcher, left me a prettily wrapped gift bag. Inside was a beautifully hand made cross stich embroidery of my Jairus House logo! I was totally amazed both at the labor of love and the craftsmanship of the work. What a delightful gift - I will surely enjoy it and will hang it with pride when we officially open our first Jairus House.
