Hope Bible Church ~ VBS ~ 2026


Every summer, we do a thing.
Hope Bible Church puts on an absolutely amazing Bible school for our kids.
It's for nursery-age through fifth grade.
Our older kids are the volunteers along with the adults.
We invite others to come as well.

This year, we had a cowboy theme.
Lots of colorful bandanas, guns and holsters, and cowboy hats.
We all wore the same T-shirt.


Our Bible Study was the Life of Christ.
I'm praying that many seeds were planted and hearts were strengthened.
The glorious gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ went out.
Praise God!
He is Risen!
He is able to save us to the utmost!

family council


I found one more picture that I wanted to share from our trip.
 Taken in the living room of our Airbnb.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words.
I agree.
No more words, just this pic.

the last of my Palm Beach pictures ~ 2026


My grandchildren

I count myself very blessed to do life with these people.
They keep me laughing and entertained.
I could talk for hours about how wonderful they are.


My children

They have been holding me up since Bubba went to heaven.
Words cannot express how thankful I am for them.
They are gifts from God.


All of us except for Amanda.
She was taking the picture.

I pray for these people every day,
individually.
We all have very specific needs.
I can see God working in their lives.
He hears and answers our prayers according to His will.
The Bible tells us that the fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

I look forward to spending eternity in heaven with all of my people.
Thank You, Jesus, for shedding Your precious blood on the cross as payment for our sins.
💗

Harry Cleland ~ Class of 2026


Congratulations Harry!
You did it!
Your Grammy is so proud of you.
Your Granddaddy in heaven is too!


His family celebration was held on Singer Island in North Palm Beach, Florida.
We all gathered outside by the pool to hear Uncle Mark deliver the keynote speech.
He offered up some humor and some truth from God's Word/
It was all very inspiring.


Everything was very casual...
Beach attire and absolutely no shoes.


For dinner, we had lasagna, salad, and french bread with cheese spread.
And, of course, there was cake for all.


Opening gifts and reading his cards.


Then down to the beach for more pictures.

Best graduation ever!
