This weekend my son Daniel together with a group of his friends will lead a school record-breaking number of classmates through the Encounter Toward Christ (ETC) retreat. I ask that you join me in prayer for the participants, leaders, and faculty involved; that the grace of God instills in them a never ending desire to keep Christ in their hearts.
A young boy was asked: Whose preaching brought you to Christ? ‘It wasn’t anybody’s preaching; it was my friend’s practicing’, he replied.
My mind is a garden. My thoughts are the seeds. My harvest will be either flower or weeds.”

Reminds me of the saying:
Preach Christ at all times, using words only when necessary.
LOVE the quote and the picture. I will be praying him for sure.
I know Luc, I’ve heard that one too. So true.
I know you will Lauren. You are such a huge supporter of your brother; it fills my heart with joy to know you guys are so close.
It is funny, Connie! I was on a trip with Pippin and he was telling me he felt like he had no real friends, except his siblings, and ME! I told him it takes time to make friends, and that I was very fortunate. You were of the first I mentioned as a friend! Then, I added that I thought so highly of your children (to give him hope and encouragement), and that I could only imagine them strong and good, like you and Ray! How perfect that you sent this to all of us. I know that your children are extra special. That is not a lightly made comment, as I barely had time to notice others, as I had so many! Hahahahah! So much love and prayers to you and your familia! T Lee
I’m so touched by your words! Thank you my friend. You’re a wonderful person T, and mother, your children are blessed. Lots of love to you and yours. J
