Susan LaffertyPowerLunch day at our church in Birmingham, Alabama. 2018.
This meant it was the first Tuesday of the month. And Shades Mountain Baptist was serving a delicious lunch for $5. As usual, Pastor Danny would give a brief talk centered around biblical principles of leadership.
Open to the community, these lunches always drew a good crowd from local businesses.
One of the strongest, most determined women I know. And funny. My mother.
A devoted follower of Christ. And gifted teacher. Mom and grandmother (Nani).
Countless are the ways her life impacts mine. And every time I try to put it down on paper, I fall short of words.
But we’re celebrating her 90th birthday this week.
So, here goes. Some personal thoughts and memories.
O give thanks to the Lord, Mom. Great things He has done!
