"Memories"

Matthew 20:1-16
                                                                                    
This was the Gospel from last week
and I found out that it brought a fond memory
to the minds of my children - though I had long
forgotten my antic!  When they were young and 
would rush to be first I'd tell them that the first will be
 last and the last will be first...well it did not take long
for them to sort it all out...they began saying:
"Me last, me last!"
 This memory makes me smile, too!  After all,
who doesn't want to be first?  I know that many times I want to be
first, especially when it comes to a buffet!!
 And as I consider who was first and last,
I am certain that they all received
equal portions!!
All my love to Daniel, Kelly, Patrick and Clay

"Dear Lord, we put our marriage into your Hands...."

Lord, help us to remember
our wedding day and the strong
love that You nurtured between us.
Help us to work that love into our daily lives
so that nothing can divide us.
We ask for words gentle and kind;
give us loving hearts ready to ask for
forgiveness
as well as to forgive.
Dear Lord, we put our
marriage into your Hands.
Amen.

Happy 30th Anniversary Todd!
I love you,
Love, Pats

The Baptism of Luke Everette

"There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called
to the one hope of your calling,
one Lord, one faith, one baptism,
one God and Father of all,
who is above all
and through all and in all."
Ephesians 4: 4-6

Dear Luke,
We pray that God's grace, love, and blessings
will follow you all the days of your life.
We love you as high as the sky!
Love, gigi and jabo
