Routine Update



Greetings and God bless.  Well we have been busy this week as you no doubt have been also.  It is wonderful that we can enjoy life, as best as we can in spite of those that would make it less enjoyable.  We had a good spirit in God’s house last Lord’s Day and look forward to another great day tomorrow.  To visit our church website click here.  My message tomorrow will mainly be an encouragement for God’s people to pray for the Supreme Court of the United States this week as they hear arguments on the subject of marriage.  For a good article on the subject under debate, click here. 

On Monday, my bride and I visited family for what we call “Range Day” and due to the politically arranged shortage of ammunition; we were forced to “economically” enjoy some great stress relief with the smell of gun smoke in the air.  Have you tried to buy any ammo lately?  I hope things turn around again soon.  Click Here.  We now have a dry practice range set up in our basement.

On Tuesday, We left Tacoma around 4PM and arrived in Concrete around 6:30PM for a meeting designed to encourage that community to stand against the attempts of a Muslim group to force Islam into their public schools. We were met by a greeter who thanked us for coming and pointed us to a seat (folded metal chairs) in the foyer because the main auditorium seating was reserved for Concrete residents. It was a packed house with standing room only. A Pastor led in prayer and introduced Kerry Hook. She did her usual outstanding job of getting to the point in a timely fashion. She also presented the teacher who gave her side of the story. A complaint had been registered against her for hate speech.  The school board investigated it and found the complaint to be baseless but CAIR, not happy with that, filed a formal complaint with the DOJ.  I thought it was ironic that the subject she was teaching on was "bullying" and now she is the brunt of classic Islamic bullying. Sharam Hadian also spoke with power and passion showing the origin of CAIR and their connections to the Muslim Brotherhood, HAMAS and known terrorist organizations. The over capacity crowd responded favorably several times but around 9:30 my bride began to wear out and we decided we had done our duty and headed back home for the night.  More information.

On Wednesday, I attended the memorial service for Frank Rogers.    I met Frank a few years back at a local GOP caucus. I wasn't familiar with how things work in the system but was fired up enough to speak my mind if given the opportunity. Frank befriended me and gave me encouragement. He asked me what kind of books I had been reading lately and told me to stay active. We had similar concerns about voter fraud and corruption in high places. I noticed at Frank's services that we had several friends in common. Frank wanted things to be done properly. The great parliamentarian will be missed in Pierce County.  Later that night I went to Prayer Meeting at TLBC.  It turned out to be a time of private prayer.  My wife was ill that night and nobody else showed up. 

On Thursday, our oldest granddaughter’s 21st birthday, we spent a quiet day reading and studying for Sunday Services.  Marion was released last week from physical therapy after her hip replacement but still has exercises to do. 

On Friday, the big event for the day was the School Play “Bugs” where our youngest grandson played an excellent part as “Bug number nineteen”. 

On Saturday, today, it was another quiet day of catching up on correspondence, cleaning out the fridge with snacks and doing chores around the old homestead.  Overall, it was a pretty good week.  I opted out of the Puyallup WAC Gun show this morning and the local Acts for America meet up tonight.
