The Right Mixture



The photo above was taken at our favorite RV park in Carrabelle Beach, Florida.  We'd sold our Timberframe in the Mountains of Western North Carolina and RVed fulltime for 17 months.  We chose College Station, Texas as our residence because it offered diversity, had a healthy economy, and was in close proximity to our Texas family and friends.  

After choosing a home we went in search of a new church.  We're Episcopalians, Rob since 1984, Mary since 1987.  We knew there were several choices in Bryan and College Station, and we planned to visit them all.

We knew of the priest-in-charge, The Rev. Lacy Largent.  Our former church, St. Cyprian's in Lufkin, TX took advantage of Camp Allen offerings.  We'd also enjoyed making shoeboxes for The Seafarer's ministry.  After visiting St. Francis we never made it to the other churches.

We received a warm welcome from Geri Moore and Jean Vilas.  They provided us with a gift bag with this message:  "WELCOME.  We are so delighted you are visiting today!  Our people are friendly and welcoming, our music is joyful and diverse, our worship is inspiring and our refreshments are delicious!"  Truer words were never spoken.

This recipe food blog was created to honor the gracious hospitality of St. Francis and named The Bread of Life as a reflection of the times we've broken bread together.
