YORK BEACH MAINE 19110 - BREWER RESIDENCE

(BROWN/BREWER FAMILY)

MY LIGHTHOUSE BY THE SEA

Paintng from years ago  

which I used for my Blog.   

It was in 2015 that I moved here

to Blaine, WA from Ellensburg, WA.

In 2012 Henry went on to glory

and it has been almost 10 years 

this year in the month of June.

                               As the birds migrate in their

season, so too, we find ourselves

thrust forth into another year.

My focus is upon the 

PROMISE 

that our Lord Jesus Christ 

gave to us before

He ascended up to Heaven.

Matthew 28. 18 - 20 

18. And Jesus came and spake

unto them, saying, 

All power is given unto me 

in heaven and in earth.

19. Go ye therefore, and teach

all nations,  baptizing them

in the name of the Father,

and of the Son,

and of the Holy Ghost:

20/ Teaching them to observe all

things whatsoever I have 

commanded you: 

and, lo, 

I am with you alway,

even to the end of the world.

When I came to Jesus as a young
woman of ten years of age, I was 
called to tell others just as 
Jesus said.   He gave that 
great commission 
because He 
wants us to be 
a part of the 
plan 

HIS LOVE FOR US 

WAS WITHOUT MEASURE

AND HOW

CAN WE GIVE 

LESS

THAN

GIVE 

OUR  LIVES

TO HIM.

When I was a little girl in Adams, Massachusetts,

I knew that I had a special purpose 

and that I wanted to know

just what 

that 

purpose was.

My mother told me,

when I was only three years old,

"When you grow up, I want you to tell me 

so the I can believe also.

and here in this photo I was all of five 

years, so I was FOCUSED 

ON FINDING OUT 

THE PURPOSE 

OF GOD IN MY LIFE.

and now here I am

in Whatcom County, WASHINGTON STATE

right near the border of British Columbia

CANADA, 

and at the edge of 

DRAYTON HARBOR 

which is situated

just at THE PORTAL OF THE 

SAN JUAN ISLANDS

And I am blessed indeed.

MY JOURNEY has taken

me from the East Coast of the 

United States to 

the very opposite 

corner here in

Blaine.

ALL GREET HOSTS OF 

PEOPLE WHO VISIT

Even in this time of Covid 

restrictions, I 

invite you to 

COME JOURNEY WITH ME 

ON MY BLOG.

www.biblebuffjournal-mybibleproject99.com
is my website,
and I intend to keep it up
as long as I am able.

KNOWING THAT 

GOD has brought me thus far,

I intend to keep on 

blogging 

unless the LORD JESUS 

SHOULD COME TO TAKE ME 

HOME TO BE WITH HIM.

Now, you must know 

that I am 88 going on 89

years this next six months.

Time may be running out for me,

but it does not matter.

He IS COMING 

IN THE CLOUDS 

TO TAKE US HOME

All those who believe

in the Lord Jesus Christ

and who

have received 

Him personally into

their heart and life

will go

INSTANTLY 

AT THE BLINK OF AN EYE 

and ONLY THOSE

will see it happen.

It  C A N  H A P P E N 

A N Y   M O M E N T 

R I G H T  N O W ! 

Jesus said in John chapter 14.

verses 1 - 3 

Let not your heart be 

troubled: ye believe in God,

believe also in me.

In my Father's house are 

many mansions; 

if it were not so, I would

have told you. 

I go to prepare a place for you.

And if I go and prepare 

a place for you,

I will come again,

and receive you unto myself;

that where I am, 

there ye may be also. 

He is coming in the clouds 

Every time I look up 

I remember what He said

that HE IS COMING 

My great grandfather Luther W. Brewer 

lived in Exeter N H when they 

raised their daughter Lillias May Brewer.

My grandfather Forrest Raymond 

Carpenter of Cheshire, MA, USA 

met and married her in 1914.

The house you see at the 

beginning of this post is the 

home they had on

the shore of 

YORK BEACH, MAINE

where it still exists today.

It is a RENTAL now, and 

some added features have been

made to it, but it is still there.

\Here they were - playing croquet 

at their place in York Beach, Maine

together.    

We called them  "May-mie"  (Mamie) and 

"Bampy"  

Their real names were 

Luther Wilbur Brewer and Vida May (Ingalls)

It was 1910 - 1914 that 

this photo was taken.

This was the photo taken when

my Mother Vida May was only 3 days old.

It was 1915.  

The whole world was at war, 

but my Grandmotherr

and Grandfather 

BELIEVED GOD

WAS WITH THEM

AND THEY WERE

RAISING THEIR FAMILY.

TODAY we 

still have the challenge

to do the same.

WE ARE TO LIVE IN 

THE LIGHT OF 

CHRIST'S SOON 

COMING

YET WE ARE 

TO KEEP ON 

DOING 

AND 

BEING 

AND 

LOVING

AS MUCH AS

WE CAN DO,

GOD HELPING

US.

Here was Grandfather 

my Grandmother 

Forrest Raymond Carpenter

and 

Lillias May Brewer

who

are holding their daughter

their First born

My Mother 

Vida May Carpenter

In this photo Mother was five years.

So here am I as a 

five year old 

in Adams MA back 

in the year of 1938  

You see I was a happy

little lass.

My mother 

My grandmother

loved on me a lot. 

I was a little Redhead

with long hair 

and wavy. 

I remember just how much

my aunties 

and uncles doted on me.

Mother had 4 sisters

and so they 

really were 

like BIG SISTERS 

to me. 

My father is here with Mother

and Grandmother, and my 

beloved Aunties.

Granddad - 

Proud to be my Grandfather

is on back row.

F R Carpenter

Pittsfield, MA in the Historical Society's files.
