I was grateful for each opportunity to share the Encounters and Reflections Books in a personal way.

Hearts and minds were enriched as we enjoyed the hospitality of the church ministry, fellowship with each other, the creativity of various businesses and the message of each book presented by the different authors at this event.

Great networking opportunities and, most importantly, connections with individuals in the community.

AOB raffle was won by a fellow author. See upcoming video.

Thank you for your "on the spot" responses to a journal prompt from the book " Encounters and Reflections - Can you hear me now?" on page 76. Responses will be posted soon

Giving Thanks

At the rising of the sun
until it's laying down

For the first and continuous breath of air

Having the grace of movement and the ability to
connect with another

A mind connected to it's source and abundant life
everyday

Through the ups and the downs, through turmoil or
abundant open doors.

For loving family and friends.

Giving thanks to you Lord.

~ A.O. Brown
