Encouraging Others

from one of our heroes...it reminds me to send more encouraging notes to others! This means so much to me!

Dear Kimberly and Jim and Tyler and Cameron--

So nice to be with you last nite.......and I cherish the 50 minutes with you "4" here on my front deck.    Sorry I had to kinda break up the evening to return to to my apt, but my daughter in Germany was going to call me long distance.    So, we missed the accordion music and perhaps some singing......but on the other hand, people were so keenly interested in your work and ministry.    

I'm so impressed with T & C what wonderful guys they are.   You've done a superb job of bringing them up in another culture.   I pray God's best and blessing and leading especially for Tyler---now headed to CPSLB.   And Cameron?   I think he's the greatest!!!    

I'm already looking forward to your next internet report.......Excellent report on your work, Jim, and the nature of your mentoring and shepherding................keep the cards & letters coming.

Howie

Web Sites and Ministries - Focus on the Family

There are so many great resources from Focus these days. I read down the list on this link today and am thanking God for their faithfulness to helping families thrive. Have you heard of their webzines? When's the last time you did a little reading up on sociological, political or parenting issues from the perspective of some thinking-deep Christians.

The one I'd never heard about until today was True U - a dvd based apolgetics curriculum to "prepare high school students for the rigorous challenges and attacks that will confront them on the university campus."
