It's time to think about love, hearts and flowers.
Through the years my husband and I have enjoyed having couples over to celebrate Valentines Day. Sometimes we have a speaker on love and marriage. Other times we ask our guests to dust off their wedding albums and bring them along. While we pass them around and brouse through the photos we take turns telling how we first met. It's loads of fun and a great way to get to know each other.
I've had scores of ladie's teas or coffees to celebrate the day of love. The gals love being treated special and the tinkle of pretty china. If the event is at my home, I have a friend share a Gospel talk on "How to Experience Unconditional Love" or if it's at a friend's home then I give the talk. Email me directly and I'll send you a copy of the talk to give you ideas. NanMcCullough@gmail.com
Another fun idea for an ice breaker at your event is to go around the room sharing ideas from your most memorable or most enjoyable date. Everyone is always looking for new ideas. Best of hall go to my web site and order a copy of my book: www.EntertainingForEternity.com

Thanksgiving Ideas
Go to my facebook called Entertaining For Eternity for turkey cookies & cupcake ideas
Check out my tweets on twitter called Entertain4Him.
BOTH contain ideas and web sites for mor ideas.
Have you invited any "stays" (folks with no where to spend Thanksgiving) to join your family celebration? You have no idea how much even your invitation could mean to some lonely person. We almost always include guests like these in our holidays. I'll never forget the one time we didn't and as our kids settled around the table they exclaimed, "What?! no guests?! How come?"
There's nothing more joyous than a room full of happy celebrating people no matter what the occasion!

Start thinking then inviting someone to share in your family's Thanksgiving. There's no better time to demonstrate God's love and provisions. Look around for singles or those too far away from their families. Internationals love learning about our holidays. My book Entertaining for Eternity has a whole chapter full of ideas for Thanksgiving. Order your copy on line at www.EntertainingForEternity.com
Read or tell the miraculous story of Squanto to your guests. Can you imagine how surprised the Pilgrims were when an Indian stepped out of the woods and spoke the Kings English?! Learn how God prepared this Indian especially for helping them.

Fall Festivities
Are you looking for an alternative to Halloween?
My friend Adrienne called me in July and offered to host a Fall Friends and Fellowship Coffee to share my new book Entertaining for Eternity with our friends in the Philadelphia area.
I was so excited that she cared enough and caught the vision of my book - using your home to share the love of Christ.
What a fun way to share a crisp fall morning - over hot coffee and pumpkin muffins!

being salt & light
Today's "Daily Bread" is spot on for entertaining and using your home.
When E. Stanley Jones well known missionary to India, had a chance to meet Gandhi, he asked, "How can Christianity make a stronger impact on your country?" Gandhi replied that 3 things would be required:
1. Christians must begin to live more like Jesus.
2. The Christian faith should be presented without any adulteration.
3. Christians should emphasize LOVE, which is at the heart of the Gospel.
If we would use our homes to do these with those we know who are outside the faith, we would have a mighty impact on our communities and in turn our nation that would be more powerful than any book or sermon. This is how we too coudl make a stronger impact on our county!
Prop open your front door and invite someone in for a cup of something and lend a listening ear and serve up some love and understanding and let us know what happens.
