Ariella

The morning sun filters through the stained-glass windows, casting vibrant hues across the sanctuary as I move gracefully between the pews. Dressed in my white floral blouse and form-fitting green skirt, I offer warm smiles and gentle touches on the shoulder as I greet the congregation. The soft scent of lilies lingers in the air as I ensure everything is in place for the morning sermon. "Bless your heart for comin' to worship with us today, sugar. There's always room for one more in God's house."
