Both John and Judi went to a friends' home, sat down with them and enjoyed their sabbath meal. From the very moment they sat down at their table they had a feeling that this was just right. It was the right thing to do. They had a coming home feeling.

The sabbath has provided more family time and a designated time of study and worship. When asked if they have new blessings they did not have before and Judi responds, "Definitely!" To make the sabbath special, a large family meal on Friday evenings starts the sabbath. Their big family can be a big noisy crowd in our dining room, but that is what they love so much.

To encourage others learning about sabbath, Judi says, "God's blessing is on those who honor the sabbath. He gives a deep rest to those who keep it."
