The Bat Signal

Over the past weeks since Ian, I’ve mentioned how I’ve met some pretty incredible people through volunteer efforts. Well, last night I was blessed to attend a small gathering with some of those incredible people. You see, a month ago I didn’t know these special people, but today, I feel like there has never been…

Blessing of the Pets

Yesterday we took some time to participate in the blessing of the pets service at our church. Even though we don’t ourselves have pets, we are kind of surrogate parents to a few of our neighbors fur babies, so we invited them to join us. These services are always fun, just seeing the variety of…

So on this Saturday morning, as you are sipping your coffee, reading this little blog, I thought I would opt for a little lighter post. I think the last few little blogs have been kind of intense. Some of you have commented that I’m feeling sad. That certainly isn’t my intent. I’m not sad at…

Gone Fishin’

I’m home after ten days away for our annual conference. Ya, I have to admit, I’m a bit pooped 🙂 But, it’s in a very good way. It was an amazing week and I’m so humbled by everyone who came by to say thank you for a wonderful week. I’m humbled by those who hugged…

“Amazing, Life Changing”

If you’ve been following me these last few days, you know that I’m in Scottsdale for our annual conference which starts on Wednesday. The photographer for our event is a friend I’ve come to know over the last several years. He and his wife live not far from me, and to say that Joey’s work…

The Captain

If you’re lucky you come across a person in your life who is a role model, a shining example of character, and a truly loving soul. Well, I have been so fortunate. Captain John was such a person. John was a dear friend, one who I looked at as a second father to me. And,…
