Shabbat Shalom, Merry Christmas & Happy Weekend to All

sunala — Fri, 21 Dec 2018 16:24:39 GMT

Shabbat Shalom to all who observe the Sabbath, and a very Merry Christmas to all those who celebrate, and happy relaxing weekend to all who post here.

To those who are celebrating Christmas, I hope your tree and your decorations are looking beautiful. My neighbors went all out this year on their outdoor decorations. They are just beautiful! I hope you've found all the gifts on your list and you're now able to relax and enjoy the happiness of the season.

It's so rewarding to be able to come together here at QVC's message board every Friday and share our holidays together, regardless of our beliefs. I'd like to thank all you beautiful people who join us on Fridays, regardless of how and where you pray. I'd also like to thank QVC for allowing us to be here.

A BIG WELCOME TO THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE JOINING US TODAY, and welcome back to all our regular posters. Your presence means a lot to us all I'd also like to thank those of you who are having health issues and share your trials, tribulations and successes with us. Prayers to each and every one of you.

Prayers to all the children who are alone and frightened. I can't say any more but may they soon be reunited with their parents and their loved ones.

May all your loved ones be healthy, but if they are ill, may they soon be well.

To those who have lost loved ones, know that they will always be with you in your heart.

To those of you and your family with health issues, may everything turn out well. May your medical tests and those of your loved ones come back with happy results. May your medical treatments be successful and may you live a long and happy life.

Sending prayers of healing and strength to you and your loved ones.

Now, even more than ever, may our leaders find the wisdom, maturity, courage, strength and sanity to make the right decisions for our security and well-being. G-d bless America!

Good thoughts and thanks to our military. May they come home safely and SOON. Bless all the servicemen that didn't make it home; and to those who are serving, thank you for your sacrifice and for being there to protect our safety.

Special prayers for all the children...may they be happy, have good health, enough to eat and drink, a warm bed, and the abiding love of parents and family who will protect them. May the children survive and thrive. No child should ever go to bed hungry, nor should anyone else in our beautiful, bountiful country. Help the food banks if you can. Even a little helps. May our own children and grandchildren be healthy and happy, and shed no tears of pain or sadness. And, MAY THEY BE SAFE in their schools, their temples and churches, and anywhere people gather.

May your parents be healthy and happy as well. I hope everyone's mom and dad, spouse, and children are healthy, and/or recovering.

Condolences to those of you that have lost a parent or a loved one recently. May you find the strength to carry on, and hold good memories of your blessed loved ones to keep you strong.

Try to do a good deed for a friend or a stranger. They'll feel good, and you'll feel better.

Good health and happiness to everyone who shares their thoughts and prayers and good wishes with us every week. Hug your loved ones every day and make sure they know you love them.

Wishing you all the very best that life has to offer. A happy and healthy weekend to all.

Merry Everything!

Hope you all enjoy this weekend. We are hosting a Holiday/Birthday Dinner tomorrow. We have 5 December Birthdays in our family so I do a Holiday themed Birthday dinner every year.

The weather is absolutely horrible today with extremely heavy rain and flooding. I sure hope it is much better tomorrow.

Our trip to Harolds last weekend was totally enjoyable with good friends and good food. It can't get better than that.

Safe travels and beautiful weekend wishes for everyone!

Hi everyone,

Good Shabbos, Merry Christmas and Happy Weekend to all!

It's a busy weekend at my home getting ready for Xmas Eve and Day. I hope whatever you are doing this weekend is relaxing and fun!

My thoughts are with all those who must work over the upcoming holidays.

My heart is with all those in the military who are not able to be with loved ones. Thank you to their families for their sacrifices, as well.

Thank you @sunala for this friendly, inclusive thread.

Today, I am leaving struffoli. Mangia!

Shabbat Shalom and Merry Christmas to all you ladies who post on these boards. A big thank you to all those people who will not be able to spend time with their families during this holiday but will remain on watch or on their jobs to keep us safe.

Special prayers for those poor children who won't have the opportunity to be with their parents over Christmas. Sad.

Sending prayers to RBG that she heal quickly. She's a rock.

Thank you @sunala and all who contribute on this thread and those who lurk. Thank you all for your wishes of a Merry Christmas-it means a lot. And I wish all a happy holiday season and safety, peace, and love to all. Special prayers for those who cannot be with their loved ones no matter what the reason, and a hedge of protection to our military. Asking special prayers for our sweet @Shanus in her hour of need.

@mustang66lady- can you please tell what's wrong with Shanus? I didn't see anything about her. I'm sending prayers her way and hope they help. Thank you xox

Oh @sunala, please read her thread here:

https://community.qvc.com/t5/Among-Friends/MY-MOM-IS-DYING/m-p/5134989#M291125

It is heartbreaking. I'm so upset for her. Please try to have a good evening and weekend and pray for @Shanus and her family. I know she will welcome that in her hour of need. Bless you for your thoughtfulness.

Thank you dear @mustang66lady for letting me know. I've only been on here occasionally this past week or so and had no idea that Shanus was going through such sorrow.

The posters on this board are so kind and generous with their prayers and understanding. I am so proud to be a part of this beautiful group. Bless each and every one of you.

@dmod nj- have a beautiful holiday, my friend. These pastries look so good! I'm sure they taste as good, if not better, than they look!
