Thank you for your very kind comments!! We were at the church building last night decorating and getting everything ready. The building looks so nice with all the flourishes. We're serving Mexican food, so one of the ladies had a Spanish class at one of the schools make tissue paper flowers for us. They are huge!! about 12" in diameter, so we used them above the doors in the building to add some color. It looks like Fiesta!!

I spent some time in the closet last night practicing what I will be saying this morning, and feel pretty good about it now. The one thing is, I'm among friends, even the ladies I don't know are my sisters in Christ, so they will forgive me if I accidentally say an "ah" or two. Will try not to though.

It should go off pretty well. We have some contingency built in just in case we start running too long on time or too short (don't think running short will be a problem.)

The men who were helping last night commented that when men do things they are so much simpler. That may be so, but our events are better attended, so there!!

Will try to post some pics later so you can see what we did.
