It Happens on this Day
May 6th was on my mind. I checked my calendar – nada, nothing showing except for me working at the family center all day and serving communion at church on Saturday night. There must be something else because I keep thinking I need to blog about whatever it may be. Still nothing. So, I googled…
The Test, the Tribulation, and the Triumph
I am picking up my grandson’s favorite after-school snack: the big plate of honey chicken X 3 and white rice at Panda Express. The manager is helping me. She knows me well from the many times I go in to get Bryson’s “snack”! But this encounter with the manager starts my TEST and my seeking!…

Aw — the…
Sometimes ACTIONS Really Do Speak Louder Than Words
St. Francis of Assisi said “Preach the Gospel at all times and sometimes use words.” His words describe what I received on Sunday, Mother’s Day, from my precious family.
