I was so happy to see Sister Christine Winesberry and her family. We took a lot of pictures but this one in particular is funny. I am trying to get the little girl to look at the camera (and she thinks its more better to look at my face) and Ria eyes are closed with the biggest smile.
I took this photo without a flash. I just used the street light.
I asked them to pose and all of sudden they became the most busy people in town. They were telling me to hurry up with the photo so I couldn’t tell them how to pose like I normally would…actually, I couldn’t tell them anything.
That’s how little brothers- turned taller brothers- can act. Like they are the boss.
The other thing we sold were personalized spoons that read: 50TH Holy Convocation 1965-2015, Bless this Kitchen with Love and Laughter Holy Temple Church
The spoons were made by Personalized Gallery at www.etsy.com. Ms. Kim Goodwin was very helpful and patient with me. In the photo, Minister Henry is buying a button and a spoon.
Some of the Little Flock stopped by and I changed the button price from 2 dollars to 1 dollar for them. Children of God are the sweestet children in the world.
Look at MJ’s smile.
By the way, shout out to Ms. Kim Goodwin in Texas who made the lovely spoons for us. Look her up on etsy.com.
My photographer buddy stopped by my table and took a lot of photos!
Everytime a brother came by the table Junior Crawford told them how important it was to buy a button.
None of the brothers walked away without buying a button and Saturday night almost all the brothers had a button on!
This summer my church had its 50th Holy Convocation. There was excitement in the air and great expectations.
To celebrate it, I along with a group of sisters and brothers created a cookbook using recipes from the saints in the church. It was a lot of hard work but worth it. The second week of the convocation, we sold the books along with other memorabilia to fund raise for the church.
Here Bishop Green is visiting our table. If you look closely, you will see he is holding a button, another item we were selling. My dad helped us make the art and taught us how to use a button machine.
Sitting next to me is Brother Junior Crawford. He helped me sell most of the buttons and once Sheranda left, took her spot. Caleb never left me.
Bishop Green tastes the ice cream one of the kids made. Shekea and her sister are waiting for his approval.
During the second week of the Holy Convocation the Little Flock made ice cream outside. Sister Shekea lead the kids in making ice cream. They were excited and hopeful. After they all drew a picture of how they thought their ice cream would turn out, they were given ice, salt, blue berries and other items to start the process.
