Quotes of Note

You're born a male but you have to CHOOSE to be a man" - Herm Edwards

"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that" - Unknown

"They err who think Santa Clause comes down through the chimney; he really enters through the heart." - Mrs. Paul M. Ell

"Thankfully, our true roots are in heritage and not things. I just need to keep reminding myself that things are only reminders of heritage." - Keetha Broyles, June 21, 2010

"Tears lubricate the soul." - from "Finding Buck McHenry"

"Somehow you must come to understand that God is love, that love is the proof of God, and forgiveness is the proof of love." - The Priest in "Levi's Will" by W. Dale Cramer

"The truth about a man is in what he does, not what he says." - W. Dale Cramer in "Levi's Will"

"Fairy Tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten." - G. K. Chesterton

Would YOU Trust This Man???

B-I-L Joe

Sister Pam and her hubby Joe have been doing a lot of volunteering since they've moved to Southern Florida.

One of the things they do is act as chaperones and sponsors for the youth group at their church. This is how Joe showed up yesterday to drive teens to a weekend retreat.

Really funny when you realize the man actually looks like this.

His sense of humor has given him a direct line of communication with kids. He has a way of remembering what each one is interested in and checking in with them about it when he sees them.

So, YES, I would trust this man!
