Sometimes in the midst of doing something that has you focused in one direction, you realize that you are learning things that apply to other aspects of your life.  That was the case when I made my first quilt.  I thought I was learning about quilting; I realized later that I was learning about life.  Has that ever happened to you?  We have been in quarantine for six months now.  Some of us have been in our homes the whole time.  Others have ventured out; all have learned new ways of doing things.  And learned new things as we did the mundane.  What have you learned about yourself and about life in the past six months?  As we bring our summer sermon series to a close, come and share with one another lessons you have learned while quilting, or gardening, or …. whatever you have been doing in the past few months.
