Reflections of Family and Faith
"The family that prays together stays together." - Venerable Patrick Peyton
I was sitting at Vacation Bible School, helping out in the nursery. One of the other mothers had just taken her daughter out to change her diaper. She left her phone on the table. It began to ring, and one of the other helpers immediately picked it up and ran to take it to her. At the surface, there may not seem to be anything wrong with this scene.

Picture it. The Holy Land. 2000+ years ago. Some sneaky minx is trying to trick Jesus into picking a favorite commandment. They forgot that Jesus won’t be trapped by our shenanigans. Instead of picking a commandment or two, Jesus simply boils it down to the heart of the matter. Love God. Love your neighbor as yourself.

I’ve been doing a lot of thinking lately about all the people knee-deep in lousy stuff. I have gotten many emails and texts in the past few weeks from people who need prayer to navigate their way through life. There is sickness, distress, family and job difficulties, and some of these requests are swirling really close to home.

Summertime has always been my favorite time of year. Having three lovely, lazy months off from school was the main reason as a kid, plus having a June birthday. Now as an adult I could do without the birthday reminder of aging, but I absolutely love having my children home from school for three whole months to enjoy lazy mornings, outdoor fun activities, and just time to relax together.
