The Linzey Team

By Elisabeth Recently, we were privileged to attend a Christmas Cantata by the world's best chamber choir, the Gracias Choir . They took first place in the International Choir Competition in Germany. This year, they make their tour through America as they go around the world. Their goal and purpose is to bring joy to people through the message of God's love, hope, and forgiveness in the Christmas Story. Say, it might be a bit early to start celebrating Christmas. But, like they said, Christmas should be celebrated every day. They certainly brought joy and renewed the delight of walking in love to us here in Oklahoma! The music and acts were top-quality professional, delightful, and inspiring. You should mark it down to attend one if they are ever performing near you.  To hear  Gracias Choir  sing the Hallelujah Chorus, the finale of the Cantata,  click here .

Here are a few pictures of Student-Free day at the fair.  We were arrived at the barnyard birthing center just in time to watch a litter of piglets be born! The middle shelter, under the elevated truck, was actually in the terrible Moore tornado three years ago and spared the lives of four people.  Can't be at the fair without... ...Cotton Candy & Kettle Corn :) The animals were the big highlight! We entered a fenced area with roaming lamas, baby goats, chickens, ducks, calves, little donkeys, piglets, and even a fawn and a young kangaroo! Where else would you find little girls? ...Looking at the candy maze. The fellows liked the tractor display.  This sign, posted on one of the antique tractors, especially brought a smile to everyone.

By Anna "Our house is a mess (toys scattered everywhere, beds unmade, dirty dishes piled high and traveling back on the counter, food that needs somebody to do something with it...), and it needs a cleaning to help it smell better. We have lots of learning to do in our schoolwork and yet we are behind in our studies. We need help to understand and to prepare for our tests. We have house projects that need most of us to help with. There's other people that want us to come over and babysit for them. We are staying up late trying to stay on top of our homework and not getting enough sleep, and therefore waking up late and not having enough of our day to fix all of the above. Wow! What should, can, do we do !?" (Laura Linzey, 10/9/15) Have you ever had a day in your life that you felt overwhelmed? When it felt like every time you tried to take one step forward, it seemed as though you took two step backwards instead? When you had too much to do at the end of the day a...
