- This past week I gave away my youngest daughter to her husband. What a great day it was. Thanks to everyone that attended, those that helped out and those that prayed. The weather was great and everything went smoothly. It is always a special time to see your child cross that threshold into marriage. It is also a reminder to us that life goes on. I am so thankful for coming to my senses many decades ago. I am now able to cherish all those memories and I celebrated a new chapter of life for Michael and Sarah De Los Santos!
- Thinking about the National Elections this next week, let us be bring our nation before the Lord. Our nation desperately needs soldiers that march on their knees.

- I want to give a shout out to those helping cover the cost of replacing the Windows on the modular. I know of three donations covering $1100 of the $2000 cost.
