A NIGHT IN THE WAREHOUSE

I SURVIVED VBS
Our new church only has VBS for one day, but the day is jam packed with outdoor activities, crafts, lots and lots of music, sweet little ones, art, games and time to spread the Gospel. As for the leaders, it … Continue reading

There are days when things just don’t make any sense. In fact every day seems to become enveloped with a thick fog that could eventually consume us and leave us hopeless. We look for answers, we strive for contentment, we … Continue reading
ADVERTISING MAN
A while back, a television series about the advertising business hit the screen. I watched one episode of this and that was enough. Unfortunately it brought up some seriously bad memories. The three hour martini lunch was played up, but … Continue reading
OPEN HEART SURGERY
Returning down memory lane, my husband had many interesting moments when he was in the advertising business. He did almost everything, from a trip deep into the Wind River Mountains on horseback to flying into a remote lake in Alaska … Continue reading

Is it in the quiet, stillness of the morning or when the evening comes? Is it in a closet full of shoes and boxes that words of solace, supplication, praise and thanksgiving spill from your lips? Do you pray when you … Continue reading
ARE WE LIVING IN HELL?
I am trying my best not to tune into the news. I feel ignorance can be bliss. At least I have a temporary respite from the ugliness of our world. We can’t really escape all the darkness surrounding us by the flip … Continue reading
TAKE & EAT, TAKE & DRINK
Yesterday our only granddaughter was confirmed in her baptismal faith. This was an especially wonderful day for us as her grandparents. In this same church, shortly after her birth, she was baptized. In this past year, she was instructed in … Continue reading

SING TO THE LORD
I spent weeks at my grandparents’ farm in the summer and am reminded of the crackling sound of the radio whining out some of those ancient spiritual songs of woe. I guess you could call them the blues of the country. Grandma … Continue reading
WHY BLOG?

Who’d think that someone in their seventies would embark on a new challenge? Our current president, for example, has taken a round about turn in his career to see what he can do to make America great again. Michelangelo, the artist, … Continue reading
