FREE

In downtown Abilene this structure used to be a restaurant, but it's been taken over by I have no idea who or what.  It offers free games on the patio and there's a FREE GAMES sign on the fence enclosing the patio.  The lights on the sign were on but because it was daytime they don't show up too well.

Ex-bank Graffiti

This structure must have been a bank at one time.  Now it's something else, but one side of the wall is fully painted in bright colors and it faces a parking lot so it can been seen by all who park there.

Free Repair

I think I saw this sign on a vacuum repair building, but I don't remember what it was referring to.  Maybe if you had a certain kind of work done, they'd do something else for free.  Anyway, I thought it was kind of interesting with the vertical black lines and then the blue letters.

Farm Fresh Eggs

The price of eggs is ridiculous.  It's a conspiracy that they've killed so many of  the chickens and the price of eggs has skyrocketed.

Someone from church brings eggs to our SS class and anyone who wants them can take them, free of charge, So... not only are they free, but they're beautiful. What a blessing.

Operation Christmas Child

Every year Samaritan's Purse conducts their Operation Christmas Child ministry.

My church is readying for the ministry by displaying a sample box with potential gift items.

This church provides all items to be packed at a packing party, or you can get your own boxes and pack them yourself.

Their goal is 800 boxes, up from last year.

What an amazing ministry!!

Praise God for Franklin Graham, Billy Graham's son, who developed this project through Samaritan's Purse.

Beautiful Artwork

Was this building a bank once upon a time?  The building seems to be abandoned now, but the artwork isn't faded.  It's one of the murals that's on the walking trail of murals around downtown Abilene, Texas.

My heart is grateful for:

beauty among abandoned places
