Do not judge and you will not be judged.
Forgive and you will be forgiven.
Give and it will be given to you.

Breakfast with a difference!


This morning, we had breakfast at 9:00 then family worship. Our music group was there too, Helga on the keyboard, John with his mandoline and Steven on the guitar.

It was lovely to meet new people and chat over with our brothers and sisters drinking (strong) fresh coffee and toasts or croissants. There was a taste of summer as strawberries and yoghurt and cereals were on the 'menu' too.
A big thank to all those who contributed to that event!

One joke.

Somehow, I know a few parrot jokes but as time passes, you need to find new jokes. I have just found that one and I think that it's a good one. What do you think about it?





Four brothers left home for college, and they became successful doctors and lawyers and prospered. Some years later, they chatted after having dinner together. They discussed the gifts that they were able to give to their elderly mother who lived far away in another city.
The first said,"I had a big house built for Mama."The second said, "I had a hundred thousand dollar theater built in the house."The third said, "I had my Mercedes dealer deliver her an SL600."
The fourth said, "Listen to this. You know how Mama loved reading the Bible and you know she can't read it any more because she can't see very well. I met this priest who told me about a parrot that can recite the entire Bible. It took twenty priests 12 years to teach him. I had to pledge to contribute $100,000 a year for twenty years to the church, but it was worth it. Mama just has to name the chapter and verse and the parrot will recite it."
The other brothers were impressed.


After the holidays Mom sent out her Thank You notes. She wrote:
"Milton, the house you built is so huge. I live in only one room, but I have to clean the whole house. Thanks anyway."


"Marvin, I am too old to travel. I stay home, I have my groceries delivered, so I never use the Mercedes. The thought was good. Thanks."
"Michael, you give me an expensive theater with Dolby sound, it could hold 50 people, but all my friends are dead, I've lost my hearing and I'm nearly blind. I'll never use it. Thank you for the gesture just the same."
"Dearest Melvin, you were the only son to have the good sense to give a little thought to your gift. The chicken was delicious. Thank you."
