Happy Anniversary Joe and Meredith

Six years ago today Joe and Meredith "tied the knot." It was a hot but beautiful day. It is hard to believe that it has been six years already. Where does the time go?
Sam was running a low grade temp today and they decided to keep things low key. I sat with Sam while they went to Rocky's to eat.
They came home pretty quick to find Sam and I taking a walk in his stroller after his bath. He loves being outside. Meredith and Joe walked with us for a bit.
Kissed him goodbye and came on home. It's 10:35 P.M. and I called Meredith and Sam was still awake! Guess Mamo got him a little wound up...not sure. Anyway, Thank You Lord for married couples especially Joe and Meredith today on their special day. May we all realize the witness we are for you by keeping this Sacrament (that you gave us) Holy. Amen.

The Loss of a dear friend.

On July 3 a dear, dear friend of ours, Chips Cronen returned to Heaven. He will be missed. We pray and ask for prayers for his wife Barbra and sons.
I came across this scripture that seems to be appropriate for Chips, it reads from Ephesians 6: 16-18
"At all times carry faith as a shield; for with it you will be able to put out all the burning arrows shot by the evil one. And accepting salvation as a helmet, and the word of God as the sword which the Spirit gives you. Do all this in prayer, asking for God's help. Pray on every occassion, as the Spirit leads. For this reason keep alert and never give up; pray always for God's people."

This is just one thought that gives "light" to the life of Chips Cronen. He was truly a prayer warrior. I've counted on his prayers many times and will continue to do so..
