A Dolphin & a Prayer
I had the day off yesterday and spent it in a place that makes my heart happy, on the water. A friend of mine is in town with her grandson, he’s 13, and a buddy of mine you might say. We’ve gone fishing together, we have dinner a our local places, and yesterday we took…

If Every Day Were Easter
Ahh, yes, taking a little time today to relax. It was a very busy week last week, culminating in an absolutely wonderful Easter Sunday.

A Loaf of Bread
Yesterday I was chatting with a friend who came by the office for a meeting. I asked her if she wanted a cup of coffee, she said no and shared that she was going to a local coffee cafe after her meeting. She went on to tell me that not only did they have the…

Simple Support
One of the most rewarding parts of my job is talking to our parishioners. I’ve learned so much about so many wonderful people. My days are filled with people stopping in for various reasons, committee meetings, bible study, attending a service, volunteering, and planning a life event like a wedding or funeral. I have the…

Time Change
Ah yes, yesterday we all felt it, the spring forward into daylight savings time. I have to admit, I’m not sure why we can’t just stay on one and not go back and forth each spring and fall. People were all a little “off” yesterday. It happens I guess when you suddenly lose an hour…
