A Busy Month

It has been a very busy August for our household. Our daughter's trip to Greece, the fair, family camp with our church, salmon fishing in the Columbia and painting the house. Sometimes it seems that there are not enough hours in the day.

I wanted to post a quick note to let you know, that although I have not been writing, I have been pondering. My next article will be called something like "Lessons From Lives of Faith" and will find it's origin in Hebrews 11. The writer to the Hebrews begins the chapter with that great definition of faith; "Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. For by it the men of old gained approval." I hope to have this article finished by the end of the month.

God bless.

My Daughter's Trip to Greece

Here are some pictures of my daughter's trip to Greece. If only stones and rocks could talk!

Here is her first sight of the Acropolis:


Here is the Parthenon:

There is Mars Hill with Athens in the background.

Justina taking a break while sitting on Mar's Hill: Paul's message to the "Men of Athens" posted at Mar's Hill in Greek: Behind Justina and one of the professors is the "judgement seat" in Corinth spoken of in Acts 18 where Paul was brought before Gallio:
The last couple of pictures are of a convent the group visited:
