For the HomeFramed Print by Michelle Weber – Hope LivesThis painting is named after a remarkable story from one of Michelle Weber’s friends. The story was of a family who had lost almost all their cows and calves in the Atlas blizzard. The woman in the story expressed that years ago they doctored on a deathly ill baldy face cow. When she survived they named her, Hope. After the storm she prayed, “God, it would be a miracle if Hope lived.” Well, Hope did live!! The irony of this story leads Weber to believe, without any doubt, that God has given her this opportunity to share her art & her friends remarkable story of faith.Donated by Val & Lori Eberspacher

4 Handmade Casserole TrivetsMary Cheek and I received a wooden casserole trivet for Christmas in 1993. Since that time we have used the trivet for every potluck supper we have attended. You can carry the hot casserole dish without fear of getting burned and the wooden pegs keep the dish in place. And the pegs allow the trivet to be used with different sized dishes. There are four trivets; each one is made from a different wood which was harvested from our property. The four wood varieties represented are Loblolly Pine, Bald Cypress, Native Maple, and Cherry.Donated by Dr. Mikell Davis
