Grace at Home No. 391


Hello, friends! Greetings this hot day in the middle of August!

As I've watched events during this pandemic, my heart has been touched by the situations of so many people—those with compromised immune systems, the elderly, those without health insurance, those who live in crowded cities, those in precarious financial positions. . . the list goes on. But right now I'm particularly mindful of those with school-age children. What a difficult position parents are in right now! May God help us all to be patient and kind to one another as each person figures out the best way forward.

Meanwhile, I've been encouraged to see how many of you are working to make your homes welcoming and full of grace. So I'm grateful to host the Grace at Home party to celebrate those achievements. Here are some highlights from last week's party.

If you need some tips for keeping your kids organized for going back to school or staying at home for school, Chas from Chas' Crazy Creations has you covered.


School lunches can be hard to manage whether your kids go to school or stay home, but Satsuma Designs offers some help, including a printable lunch planner.


Whatever your decision for sending kids to school, you may want to celebrate back-to-school (or NOT back-to-school) time. Jennifer Lambert from A Sacred Balance shares lots of ideas.


Have you felt like the walls of your home are closing in on you? Check out this post from Jolena at While I Linger about adding to your living space—I think you'll be inspired!


Looking for some new wall art? Jayne from Chalking Up Success shares some inspiration for botanical prints I think you'll enjoy.


Love to have flowers in the house? I sure do! Pam from Everyday Living is a flower master, and she's sharing some advice I'm going to remember for next year: plant zinnias!


Need some nourishment for your soul? Check out this post from Pam at A New Lens.


Thank you to everyone who joined last week's party! 

Now for today's party.  Here at the Grace at Home party, I invite you to link posts about

Whatever you do to make your home a place of grace, I'd like to hear about it.  Here's what I ask of you.  Please include the permalink to your post, not your blog's home page.  Please let people know that you've linked up.  No more than three posts per person, please.  Note that if you link a post here, you are giving me permission to share your post, including a photo.  And visit at least one of the other party participants--that's what really makes it a party, and during these difficult times, it can really make someone's day!

  1. Thanks so much for hosting each week, Richella. A special thank you for featuring my “zinnia time.” My heart is heavy for all that is happening and I especially pray for all of the children who are back in the classroom or home with virtual school.

  3. Yes, these next few weeks will be extra stressful. My boys will start a hybrid version of school in September but I have a feeling we will have to go full virtual once someone tests positive...ugh. Now more than ever, decorating has become a great escape from reality! Thanks for hosting and enjoy the rest of your week!

  9. It's so hard to believe school is starting back up! I just can't get over how this year is flying by now. I hope we can all find special ways to celebrate even though the first day of school will be nothing like we had imagined. Hugs and thinking of you as you make the transition, CoCo

  12. Richella, your right. These are exceptionally difficult and extraordinary times. Being a parent, I too, am uncertain about the school scenario. Should I or should I not, let my son start school online or in person. In the end, we can only leave the situation in the Almighty's hands.

  13. Get Your Ex-Lover Back Today No Matter Why He Left”
    I just got my ex husband back through the help of Dr Unity love spell Experts.
    My name is Emily Sarah am from Tx,USA. My husband left me for another woman, This was just 3 years of our marriage. The most painful thing is that I was pregnant with our second baby. I wanted him back. I did everything within my reach to bring him back but all was in vain, I wanted him back so badly because of the love I had for him, I begged him with everything, I made promises but he refused. I explained my problem to my friend and she suggested that I should rather contact a spell caster that could help me cast a spell to bring him back , I had no choice than to try it. I messaged the spell caster called dr unity, and he assured me there was no problem and that everything will be okay before 11 hours. He cast the spell and surprisingly 11 hours later my husband called me. I was so surprised, I answered the call and all he said was that he was so sorry for everything that had happened He wanted me to return to him. He also said he loved me so much. I was so happy and went to him that was how we started living together happily again.thanks to dr unity . if you are here and your Lover is turning you down, or your husband moved to another woman, do not cry anymore, contact Dr.Unity for help now..Here his contact,
