Smile and think of the two of you.<BR/><BR/>This evening I started reading next weeks scriptures preparing for RCIA on Tuesday. The message is clearly about Foregiveness and our task to reconcile. The Mercy God extends to sinners, compassion and Gods Grace also come through loud and clear. Exodus then reminds us of the first commandment and that whole idol thing. How God is discouraged, hurt, angry and emotional.<BR/><BR/>And there the two of you are in our first reading in RCIA. Giving up your home, jobs – everything. To do Gods will. I know He’s as emotional as we are about your journey. Only this time it’s all the good emotions.<BR/><BR/>So you see, you may not physically be with us in RCIA this year, but you will always be with us. In our hearts, thoughts, prayers and in the scriptures we read.<BR/><BR/>I know that He lives when I think of you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8853409205042025614.post-13422234225892914742007-09-07T21:35:00.000-07:002007-09-07T21:35:00.000-07:00A great gift arrived in the DR today!Unwrap it gen...A great gift arrived in the DR today!<BR/>Unwrap it gently and gradually.<BR/>Enjoy each new surprise.<BR/> Blessings and Love<BR/> VeronicaVeronicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16659961959090346818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8853409205042025614.post-59769572102514428982007-09-07T13:06:00.000-07:002007-09-07T13:06:00.000-07:00Greg & Cin, We are in awe of both of you, wish you...Greg & Cin, We are in awe of both of you, wish you peace and love and maybe a shower every now and then. <BR/>We will miss you at RCIA;at the Shelter, at VOTF, at Blanket Banquet lets see did I get it all.....?<BR/><BR/>Keep us posted<BR/>Ray & Phyllisphyllischicohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14381280170511684981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8853409205042025614.post-17318034419624327342007-09-07T05:22:00.000-07:002007-09-07T05:22:00.000-07:00You left this morning :(My heart goes with you on ...You left this morning :(<BR/>My heart goes with you on this journey! ust know that we will be thinking and praying for you everyday and when you come home, we will be ready to roll up our sleeves and live the "simplier life" here in Charlotte!<BR/>Love and peace to you,<BR/>Linda and MichaelLinda Flynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00647987444372265426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8853409205042025614.post-54775932028111359272007-09-06T18:54:00.000-07:002007-09-06T18:54:00.000-07:00God speed and traveling prayers as you begin this ...God speed and traveling prayers as you begin this new adventure!<BR/><BR/>Chris Bates, PLCMCChrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10319935804407300025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8853409205042025614.post-41219052722258660682007-09-03T16:08:00.000-07:002007-09-03T16:08:00.000-07:00Cindy & Greg,You are such an inspiration!
