Christmas box Sunday... still more coming in. Kids laid their hands on the boxes and praying over them was large. Something their little hearts will grow with. Okay, it's time - start playing the Christmas music. #christmasbox #samaritanspurse #samaritanspurseshoeboxes #lifeabundantniagara #jesus (at Niagara-On-The-Lake, Ontario)

Bob Dylan - was today awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. Amazing! First time ever this award went to someone primarily seen as musician. Greatest song-writer of the last 50 plus years. #robertzimmerman #bobdylan #foreveryoung #numbers6 #blessing #nobelprizeforliterature #2016 #mayyoustayforeveryoung (at Village of Virgil)
