We tinted our way to beautiful colorful jars during our 25th year of the LIFT ministry!!

| Judith encouraged us to call on the name of the Lord. |
What is in a name? "We only need to speak the name of Jesus and there He is." Call on the name of the Lord in every season of your life.
"At that time men began to call on the name of the LORD." Genesis 4:26
"Because he loves me," says the LORD, "I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. He will call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. With long life will I satisfy him and show him my salvation." " Psalm 91:14-16
"In that day you will say: "Give thanks to the LORD, call on his name; make known among the nations what he has done, and proclaim that his name is exalted. Sing to the LORD, for he has done glorious things; let this be known to all the world. Shout aloud and sing for joy, people of Zion, for great is the Holy One of Israel among you." Isaiah 4-6
Mashelle led us in a Fall Craft of tinting glass jars.

Tinting Jars
 |
| Mashelle demonstrated how to tint jars. |
1. In
squeeze bottle, mix about 4 tablespoons of glazing medium (Liquitex) with a few
drops of
liquid food color. Gently swirl
to blend to desired hue.
2. Holding
jar horizontally; pour the mix over the sides of the jar, avoiding the screw threads
and rotating jar until covered. (If this is done over a plate/container the
excess can be poured back in the bottle and reused.) 3. Break any air bubbles by gently blowing on them or by using a straight pin. Set jar upright on waxed paper; periodically wipe off excess glazing medium from the jar bottom with a paper towel.
4. Allow to sit for 10 minutes before drying. There are a few ways to dry the glaze: Use a hairdryer (takes about 5-7 minutes) or place on wax paper-lined pan in an oven set on warm (takes about 25 minutes) or dry at room temperature (takes several hours).
Note: The color is permanent, but jars are not dishwasher-safe.
