[Jonathan Edwards wrote of Sarah], “They say there is a young lady in (New Haven) who is loved of that Great Being, who made and rules the world, and that there are certain seasons in which this Great Being, in some way or other invisible, comes to her and fills her mind with exceeding sweet delight; and she hardly cares for anything, except to meditate on him… she has a strange sweetness in her mind, and singular purity in their affection… you could not persuade her to do anything wrong or sinful... She is of a wonderful sweetness, calmness and universal benevolence of mind…. She will sometimes go about from place to place, singing sweetly; and seems to be always full of joy and pleasure; and no one knows for what. She loves to be alone, walking in the fields and groves, and seems to have some one invisible always conversing with her.”

Heat oven to 350 degrees.  In a large saucepan, scald cream with vanilla
bean. Add sugar and stir until completely dissolved. In a large bowl, beat
egg yolks until light lemon color, then stir hot cream mixture carefully
into egg yolks with a pinch of salt. Strain mixture into a 10-inch shallow
baking dish or eight (8) 4-ounce ramekins. Place dish(es) in a pan of hot
water and bake for 50-60 minutes; bake ramekins 35-40 minutes. Custard is
done when knife inserted in center comes out clean. Refrigerate until
chilled.  Sprinkle sugar over custard making a layer 1/4 inch thick. Sugar
should be as smooth as possible. Broil 4-6 inches from broiler until sugar
has carmelized, turning dish as necessary so it carmelizes evenly. Chill

A Message from our Provider:

“Life: your chance to spurn God’s love Eternity: living with the consequences”

Just how important is your church? Consider the following: 1. It provides you with daily and weekly fellowship. 2. It warns and encourages you. 3. It helps hold you accountable. 4. It provides communion for you. 5. It challenges you to use your spiritual gifts. 6. It provides a place for those gifts to be exercised. 7. It helps protect you from heresy. 8. It guides you to godly living. 9. It spiritually ministers to your family. 10. It collectively supports Christian causes and missions around the world. 11. It often means the salvation of souls (perhaps even your own). 12. It helps you when you are spiritually, emotionally, physically or financially in need. 13. It is the pillar and ground of the truth in your area. 14. It disciplines you when you develop a sinful lifestyle. 15. It helps bring down racial barriers. These are just a few of the benefits of belonging to a good local church.
