Farewell Kenny Rogers, Thanks For The Hits Through The Years
Kenny Rogers is one of the greats of American music. His distinctive voice was welcomed in the country and pop music worlds. Kenny was friends with a who’s who of the music greats of his era such as Dolly Parton, The Bee Gees, Lionel Richie and more. I really like “The Gambler” because it told a great story of gambling and life. Rest in power Kenny, thanks for all the hits through the years.
Support Local Eats
During the virus crisis it’s important to support local businesses. Today I ordered Chinese food (my favorite sesame chicken) for lunch from Hunan Wok through Uber Eats. Local places need the support in a big way now.
So many establishments are having to modify the way they operate and serve customers that it’s having a impact on their bottom line. Support local and you can’t go wrong.
Keeping The Faith Through The Miracle Of Technology
This past Sunday my priest delivered morning prayers on Facebook live in the place of our normal worship service which was canceled due to the Coronavirus. Many houses of worship are doing the same.
My religious study group Education for Ministry, did the same thing Monday. Via the web meeting service Zoom, we gathered together from 8 different places online to keep going. It truly is amazing how technology is bringing people together.
Fellowship is about gathering together and it was great to be able to do this to have a meaningful discussion about how we have been spiritually impacted by Coronavirus and to share how this is changing our worship experience. We also discussed our assigned readings on the book of Hebrews from The Bible.
I think this system of electronic gatherings is what will keep us together during these uncertain times. We have some members of the group who don’t need to be getting out and about. Gathering together in person is what we prefer but this is a great system to be sure we are checking in with one another and keeping safe.
