Happy end of 2021, dear friends!
As the year winds down, we're celebrating connection and community and all the splendid gifts that come with purposeful, kind-hearted relationships, whether online or in person. Grab your party hat and the confetti ... because you had a big hand in making this happen!
And then put your feet up and get cozy 'cause we've got a whole lot to explore, bookmark, and take note of.
A blog-ish drum roll please.
All praise to Him.

UPDATE FOR THOSE WHO LIKE
THE BLOG COMING TO THEIR EMAIL
Back in June I moved my free blog post delivery system from Feedburner to Mailchimp.
* If you've never subscribed, now's the perfect time. Click right here to do so. {You can easily cancel any time.} Be sure that I'm on your safe sender list.
lindastoll @ juno . com
* If the posts aren't coming, check your junk mail folder.
* If you've been a long time subscriber and haven't re-subscribed since June, click right here. Feedburner deliveries are getting more erratic and will most likely disappear before too long.
* If you're getting delivery of two copies of the same post:
Keep the email that has the brick building logo at the top of the page.
* If you're getting a copy with no brick building logo:
Scroll down to the bottom left of that email and click on the tiny unsubscribe now button. This is the old Feedburner email that is going out of business. The subject line reads Linda Stoll ...
YOUR INVITATION
TO COMMENT
Hint: The best part isn't the post. It's the conversation that follows for all readers.
You don't have to be a subscriber, a blogger, or an online guru to join the party. This is not an exclusive club, it's an open house! I invite you to savor whatever's on the table and then head on down to the comment section and share your thoughts.
Email readers, click on the post title to jump on over to the website. Scroll down to the comment section. Follow the prompt to comment. There will be a space that says Name /URL. Just fill in your name {a URL is only if you have a website. Just ignore it.}
Or you can simply hit the reply button and I'll post your comment, identifying you only by your first initial. Texting friends, the same applies to you!
If you're having trouble navigating, please email me at

Looking forward to doing life together in 2021! Let's see what God has for us individually and as a community.
Linda
