So Ewe Want to Know About Me?
I’m Juli Jarvis–a wife, proud mother of three, a Child Advocate for Compassion International, and a musician. I’m very pleased to be the piano accompanist for our local high school choirs, which include concert choir and two vocal jazz groups. I love going for walks, picnics, and hikes in the mountains. I also love to travel and have combined travel and history interests with research on our family tree. The most important aspect of my life is my relationship with my Savior, Jesus Christ. He is my best friend, my Counselor, Comforter, and supplier of all my needs.
I like to bring humor into my writing, along with spiritual lessons I’m learning along the way. He speaks to me every day in the words of scripture, through situations, nature and others on the same pathway.
I write another blog at http://endlessthanks.wordpress.com

Juli: My wife was inspired by your Wordle of the names of Jesus, and wants to try to do something along the same lines for our congregation. We would appreciate knowing the version of Wordle you are currently using, specifically, one that allows use of phrases, and greater control of output styles. But, as you’ve learned through your experiences, the standard wordle routines don’t handle phrases… We are aware of the advanced routine allowing control of size and color, but wonder if these are what you use. Thanks in advance for a reply. M-E and SC Duban.

I just use http://wordle.net according to their directions. When you want to keep words together, you need to connect them like this:
The~names~of~Jesus.
You can see tips for creating wordles here on my website in the sidebar. Let me know if you have any other questions. And please send me the link to your Wordle when it’s completed!

Sorry I have just left a message about sponsering a child in Hait but ment to mention I live in England, and my husband is also an advocate for compassion too.

Hi just started sponsering a little boy from Haiti, and was interested in the visit you made there. And what church did you go to.

Northwestern Virginia…about 2 hours west of DC. We have the Shenandoah Mountains, which after visiting Wyoming, look more like hills…lol.
