Oh my, this looks frightening. Would you swim in a pool like this high up in the air?

The Hopeful Legacy of Prince

396f451fb517fb9fa0917cc45edbc9c8I hope that kids today will see Prince and say that is awesome music. May that inspire them to learn how to play, write and perform music that lasts generations. Prince can inspire us all to do great things in our chosen field to make our own music.

His life was about doing amazing things that made the world take notice. We all have our influences and may he continue to influence generations of people even in his death. Much like ripples on a pond he made waves and gave the world songs that will last forever.

Farewell Father Rob, Thank You For Your Service

My priest celebrated his final mass this morning with my parish. Father Rob has been at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church for two years where he has served as an interim priest while a search for a permanent priest has taken place. Rob has done great things to revitalize our faith community. This is a plain-spoken man who loves God and people. He also helped lead us to the Episcopal/Anglican Church during a time when we were looking for a new place to worship last Fall. Thank you Father Rob, may God bless you in your next assignment.

Good Sunday

I hope everyone has a great Sunday. Grace, peace and love to each of you today. God be with us all.
