 Greetings,

    "Here is my servant, whom I uphold, my chosen one in whom I delight; I will put my Spirit on him, and he will bring justice to the nations. He will not shout or cry out, or raise his voice in the streets. A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out. In faithfulness he will bring forth justice; he will not falter or be discouraged till he establishes justice on earth. In his teaching the islands will put their hope."
Isaiah 42:1-4

     Started this week in Grinnell, Iowa where I published from the library. Then drove east into Illinois.

          Tuesday April 5 th ~

     Stopped in El Paso, Illinois and sang at their "Health Center". This facility seems to specialize in residents of all ages dealing with mental issues.

     They had me in a small room with five residents. As I started, I could see through the window about fifty residents line-up outside where a staff member would give each (one-at-a-time) a cigarette and light it for them.

     Eventually about five more came into the room I was in.

     Kind of sad, in some ways.

          Wednesday April 6 th ~

     Having crossed into Indiana I hooked up with old friends at the Nazarene church in Logansport.

     During mid-week services I was given the opportunity to share a bit.

          Thursday April 7 th ~

     Rain, snow & sleet most all day. Got to spend some time with old friends.

          Friday April 8 th ~

     Ministered at the "Mckinney Place" assisted living facility in town.

          Saturday April 9 th ~

     Woke up to snow on the ground. Guess I went too far north, too quick. This year.

     Enjoyed dinner-out with old friends' Rod & Cheryl.

          Sunday April 10 th ~

     During morning worship services here at the Nazarene church I was given the honor of contributing a Special. Then got over to Horace & Linda's (previous pastor) for a delicious lunch.

     Attended evening services, then joined several members for a little fellowship at Arbys.

    

And so begins another week.

May The Lord Our God
Guard, Guide And Direct You.
In The Name Of Jesus. Amen!
