Some day I'll catch a photo of Mike the Greyhound with his nose in a Dannon yogurt cup....It makes me laugh.

I was so happy to catch this. There was way less than a teaspoon but she was so passionate about getting every drop!

                                                                            Homily for the 5th Sunday in Easter May 15, 2022 ECOOS + When we visited our family in Pennsylvania, I was captivated by the home they have created together. Inside and out, it is a Sanctuary.   As *I* remembered our children at 7 and 2 1/2 years old, the parents (not for want of teaching) were the main ones singing the “Pick Up Clean Up” song.   I think that piece may be hereditary. . . Mercifully, this Wilson home is not a house of perfection, although Hillary’s storage aspirations and Case’s woodworking ability to bring those dreams to life definitely bring it close. But it is really more about love and family, and creating as gracious and serene a way of life as is possible.   The last morning we...

Veterans Day

One of the towns I drive through is Manchester, KY. Manchester is a town that supports its military citizens in a big way. Several weeks ago, a deployed group returned. Two miles out of Manchester, the posters and yellow ribbons welcoming them home were blowing in a gentle wind. You could feel the joy of the entire town at their return. East of Manchester, there is a marker with a rifle forming part of a cross. At the base is a pair of boots, and the helmet rests on the butt of the rifle. This week, flowers were added and today a large 4X6 flag flew low to the ground as part of this memorial. I think this particular remembrance might be for Sgt. Stanfill, who died in an accident on the Hal Rogers Parkway just east of Manchester a couple of years ago. Even though Sgt. Stanfill perished on the road I drive several times a week instead of on a far away battle field, I am glad the citizens of Manchester --or perhaps his family-- honor his service in such a way. We observed the tradition...

                                        Homily for the Second Sunday in Lent March 13, 2022 ECOOS + My Beloved Sisters and Brothers:   It is beyond time for us to get this straight. We want to control, but then we fail.   We try to trust, and things get better. We believe that they are better because we are just that good.   Then, we want to control, and once again, we fail.   Are you seeing the cycle?   I know that I am. The readings for this Second Sunday in Lent, invite us once again to trust, and maybe even to stay there.   These are covenant promises that God has made, to Abram and to us.   While we have plenty of examples to discourage us from continuing this cycle, we also have plenty of evidence that Jesus will continue to reach for us.   We have all of the negative—and positive—reinforcement needed to change.   And, Lent in 2022 i...
