INSTRUCTIONS

ICE RING
PUNCH
To prepare ice ring, pour 2 1/2 cups of the orange juice into 6-cup ring
mold; freeze until firm.
To make lime rose, use a very sharp knife and starting at one end of lime,
cut a continuous 1-inch wide strip in spiral fashion, taperin to the
opposite end to remove. Curl the strip, peel side out, into a rose shape.
Pour 1 1/4 cups orange juice over frozen juice in ring. Arrange lime roses
in juice, right side up; frreeze until firm. Garnish with cherries. Pour
remaining 1 1/4 cups orange juice into mold to partially cover cherries;
freeze until firm.
* I'm sure if you don't wish to go through the trouble you can spread the
lime slices and cherries in liquid and it would just as nice.
To prepare punch, combine juices and sugar in large punch bowl; blend well.
Just before serving, gently pour in ginger ale; stir gently. Unmold ice
ring and float, fruit side up in punch bowl.

A Message from our Provider:

“Buy into the firm foundation – Jesus!”

There may be circumstances in your earthly lot which at this moment are peculiarly trying. You look around and wonder how this or that circumstance will terminate. At present it looks very dark-clouds and mists hang over it, and you fear lest these clouds may break, not in showers upon your head, but burst forth in the lightning flash and the thunder stroke! But all things are put in subjection under Christ's feet! That which you dread cannot take place except by His sovereign will-nor can it move any further except by His supreme disposal. Then make yourself quiet. He will not allow you to be harmed. That frowning providence shall only execute His sovereign purposes, and it shall be among those all things which, according to His promise, shall work together for your good. None of our trials come upon us by chance! They are all appointed in weight and measure-are all designed to fulfill a certain end. And however painful they may at present be, yet they are intended for your good. When the trial comes upon you, what a help it would be for you if you could view it thus, “This trial is sent for my good. It does not spring out of the dust. The Lord Himself is the supreme disposer of it. It is very painful to bear; but let me believe that He has appointed me this peculiar trial, along with every other circumstance. He will bring about His own will therein, and either remove the trial, or give me patience under it, and submission to it.

J.C. Philpot
