<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">by-Folk melody from India</span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">"In the 1880's a Welsh missionary who had endured severe persecution, f</span>inally<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> saw his first converts in a particularly brutal village in the Indian </span>province<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> of Assam. A husband and wife, with their two children, professed faith in Christ and were baptized. Their village leaders decided to make an example out of the </span>husband<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">. Arresting the family, </span>they demanded<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> that the father </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">renounce</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> Christ, or see his wife and children murdered. When he refused, his two children were executed by archers. Given another chance to recant the man again refused, and his wife was similarly struck down. Still refusing to recant, the man </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">followed</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> his family into glory. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Witnesses later told the story to the Welsh missionary. The reports said that when asked to recant or see his children murdered, the man said: "I have decided to follow Jesus, and there is no turning back."</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">After seeing his children killed, he reportedly said, "The world can be behind me, but the cross is still before me." After seeing his wife pierced by arrows, he said, "Though no one is here to go with me, still I will follow Jesus."</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Edward</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; text-indent: 0.5in;"> Alexander MacDowell was
born on December 18, 1860, in lower east side Manhattan, New York. His parents
were Thomas MacDowell, a milkman, and his musically inclined mother was Frances
Knapp MacDowell. MacDowell’s mother wanted him to learn piano. She employed
Juan Buitrago, a Colombian violinist who was living with the MacDowell family
for the time being. MacDowell’s other piano teachers were Teresa Carreno and
friends of Buitrago. The MacDowell family moved to Paris, France, in 1877.
Edward was admitted to the Paris conservatory. Later he continued his education
at Dr. Hoch’s Conservatory in Frankfort, Germany. He studied piano with Carl
Heymann and composition with Joachim Raff. MacDowell also taught piano at
"Schmitt's Akademie für Tonkunst" in Darmstadt for a year. In 1884,
MacDowell married Marian Griswold Nevins, an American, who was a student of
Edward’s for three years. Marian sadly suffered from an illness that left her
unable to have children. From 1885 to 1888, MacDowell spent most of his time on
composition work. In the autumn of 1888, MacDowell decided to return to the
United States, because of financial difficulties. The MacDowell’s lived in
Boston where Edward became Professor of Music at Columbia University until
1904. As Edward taught and composed from 1896 to 1898, he directed the
Mendelssohn Glee Club. He also composed music for the group to perform. In
1896, Hillcrest Farm was purchased by Marian MacDowell to serve as their summer
home located in Peterborough, New Hampshire. MacDowell was inspired by the
beautiful setting. He was most likely inspired by in this new environment. In some
of his smaller pieces, he caught much of the American spirit by blending
romantic techniques with an intimate feeling for the American scene. "If a
composer is sincerely American at heart," MacDowell said, "his music
will be American." MacDowell's compositions included two piano concertos,
two orchestral suites, four symphonic poems, four piano sonatas, piano suites
and songs. He also published dozens of piano transcriptions of mostly 18th
century pre-piano keyboard pieces. MacDowell published 13 piano pieces and a 4
part song under the pseudonym of Edgar Thorn in 1896 to 1898. During American
Academy of Arts and Letters, they had invited Edward as one of their early
selections for membership in</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; text-indent: 0.5in;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; text-indent: 0.5in;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; text-indent: 0.5in;">1904. The MacDowell’s envisioned starting a
colony for artists in Peterborough, New Hampshire, close to their home.
MacDowell was a wonderful piano teacher, and two of his students were John
Pierce Langs and Edward Sapir. Edward MacDowell died on January 23, 1908, in
New York City, at the early age 48. His wife Marion cared for him until the day
he died. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; text-indent: 0.5in;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; text-indent: 0.5in;">Marion, in 1907, founded the
Edward MacDowell Association. She led it for more than 25 years. Their dream
had come true.</span></div>

It's is that time of year again when you pull out all of your favorite recipes, and I want to share with you my personal favorite. Gluten & Dairy Free Maple Pumpkin Pie!!! Being completely gluten and dairy free I was so disappointed when I learned that I could not have my favorite Thanksgiving dessert. I have been gluten & dairy free for 3 years. Last year I found this recipe and decided to try it out, hoping and praying that it would taste the same. Surprise!!!!! It was even better then I remembered. So below is the recipe and I add a few notes of what I did that made it better. Enjoy!!</div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">On October 31st, in 1517, Martin Luther nailed his 95 theses to the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg. <span style="text-align: center;">Reformation Day recognizes this event and other reformers who God mightily used to make known the true meaning of his word. The reformation is a break away from the main religion of it's time, Catholicism. This religion focused on man made approaches and principals that help a person possibly gain entrance into heaven. Reformation emphasizes what is communciated in the bible. By God's grace through faith, a person believes in Christ, repents of their sins, and the Lord becomes their Savior and Lord. The reformed says that God draws you and makes Himself known to you and you repent. Most importantly, God opens man's eyes and heart to desire to know Him more and get right with God. This verse says it so well, </span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; text-align: center;">Romans 10:17, "So faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the word of God."</span><br />
