So much symbolism here! Between spiritual and physical harvest, labor in the fields and "battlefields", the glory of God is seen in this sheer beauty and in the community of the church!
Perhaps
on the coldest day we have experienced to the present, a group of us
gathered in the vineyards of a fellow brother in our church to help with
the harvest. In the words of Hans, the "lord" of the vineyards, this is
a sign of community and love between "brothers" in the body of
Christ... He then put
us to work!
Cold and drizzly... but stunning.
On the vine next to me, the power team. (They like to think so, at least ;)
On the left Alex Adolf and to the right- the Atomics Baseball coach Rob Piscatelli.
Carrying the loads...
My two best men, Jakey and Alex. And yes, we all stopped halfway.. reek reek!
Yes, I am fulfilling every woman's dream of being the "token" girl in the bunch. Take that, "Samford Ratio"! Encouraged by a hardworking but fun group of men.
Tut tut, looks like rain and home!

Our reward:
Many cups of hot coffee, tea, breads, marmalades, meet, cheese, and even a bit of Schnapps to warm up the hands and heart ;)
It was worth it!
