  • Boss' Birthday


    Yesterday was my boss' birthday.  We gave her a surprised party last Thursday.  Everyone had a blast celebrating the big day with her.

    Some staff stayed late the night before to decorate the office.













    More last minute prep...















    Unexpectedly, Karen arrived office early that morning...









    Here is the whole Finance crew...


     








  • GRIP...


    Grip on the things of the world, I'll get the things of the world.
    Grip on the Creator of the world, I'll get to soar with the Creator.


    Earth is His footstool; Heaven is His home.
    What's in my grip; where my heart lies.


    Whatever is in my grip; whatever becomes of me.
    Whatever I desire of; whatever desires of me.


    Earth is His footstool; Heaven is His home.
    What's in your grip; where your heart lies.

  • " if, by any means, I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.  Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me.  Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead..."

    uncompromising debates,
    victorious cheers,
    heart aching separations,
    joyful celebrations, and
    dreary numbers
    have all spurred me to keep press on...


    Thirty-seven miles,  away from home;

    together we make, a better tomorrow.


    Pay checks in my wallet, parish in no time;
     Priceless friendship, cherish.over time.


    How blessed I am, thanks to my Lord;
    His hand prints, last a life time.

    Progressive Insurance Chairman Gives $8.5 Million To ACLU

    Gift helps ACLU in their War on Christmas

    Dear Linda,


     In one of his recent columns, Chuck Colson relates the following story.


    In a Texas classroom, children were told to draw a tracing of their foot, and then put a message on the drawing. One little girl wrote "Jesus Loves Me" on hers. What happened next shows the abysmal state of religious tolerance in America.

    As Fox news anchor John Gibson relates in his new book, The War on Christmas, the child's teacher ripped the tracing off the board. "Don't you ever do this again," she said. The little girl burst into tears.

    When her outraged father called the school, nervous officials told the child to make another tracing. She did so—but this time, instead of scrawling "Jesus Loves Me," she drew a tiny cross that was so small it was almost invisible.
    Behind nearly every such incident you will find the ACLU. According to the New York Times, Peter Lewis, chairman of Progressive Insurance, believes in the mission and work of the ACLU so much that he gave them $8.5 million.

    Chairman Lewis' gift helps the ACLU promote their anti-Christmas agenda such as:



    • Removing nativity scenes from public property

    • Banning songs such as Silent Night from schools

    • Refusing to allow students to write about the Christian aspect of Christmas in school projects

    • Renaming Christmas break Winter break

    • Refusing to allow a city sponsored Christmas parade to be called a Christmas parade

    • Not allowing a Christmas tree in a public school

    • Renaming a Christmas tree displayed on public property a Holiday tree
    In addition to their war on Christmas, the ACLU uses gifts like that from Chairman Lewis to:



    • Sue states to force them to legalize homosexual marriage

    • Force libraries to remove porn filters from their computers

    • Sue the Boy Scouts to force them to accept homosexuals as scout leaders

    • Help legalize child pornography

    • Legalize live sex acts in bars in Oregon

    • Protect the North American Man Boy Love Association whose motto is "sex by eight or it is too late"

    • Censor student led prayer at graduation

    • Remove "under God" from the Pledge of Allegiance

    • Remove "In God We Trust" on our currency

    Recommended action: If you have a Progressive Insurance policy, cancel it. If you don't have a Progressive policy, let Chairman Lewis know you will not be buying one. (We recommend you do not purchase Allstate Insurance. We will explain our recommendation in a future letter.)

    Extremely important! Please forward this to your family and friends. The vast majority of them probably aren't aware of Chairman Lewis' gift to the ACLU.

    Thanks for caring enough to get involved.



    Sincerely,


    Don

    A very good friend send this to me...thought it's worth sharing...





    'Twas the night before Christmas
    and all through the town
    Not a sign of Baby Jesus
    was anywhere to be found.



    The people were all busy
    with Christmas time chores

    Like decorating, and baking,
    and shopping in stores.
    No one sang "Away in a manger,
    no crib for a bed".
    Instead, they sang of Santa
    dressed-up in bright red.


    Mama watched Martha Stewart,
    Papa drank beer from a tap.
    As hour upon hour
    the presents they'd wrap

    When what from the T.V.
    did they suddenly hear?
    'Cept an ad.. which told
    of a big sale at Sears.

    So away to the mall
    they all flew like a flash...
    Buying things on credit...
    and others with cash!

    And, as they made their way home
    From their trip to the mall,
    Did they think about Jesus?
    Oh, no... not at all.

    Their lives were so busy
    with their Christmas time things
    No time to remember
    Christ Jesus, the King.

    There were presents to wrap
    and cookies to bake.
    How could they stop and remember
    who died for their sake?

    To pray to the Savior...
    they had no time to stop.
    Because they needed more time
    to "Shop til they dropped!"


    On Wal-mart! On K-mart!
    On Target! On Penney's!
    On Hallmark! On Zales!
    A quick lunch at Denny's

    From the big stores downtown
    to the stores at the mall
    They would dash away, dash away,
    and visit them all!

    And up on the roof,
    there arose such a clatter
    As grandpa hung icicle lights
    up on his brand new step ladder.


    He hung lights that would flash.
    He hung lights that would twirl.
    Yet, he never once prayed to Jesus...
    Light of the World.

    Christ's eyes... how they twinkle!
    Christ's Spirit... how merry!
    Christ's love... how enormous!
    All our burdens... He'll carry!


    So instead of being busy,
    overworked, and uptight
    Let's put Christ back in
    Christmas and enjoy
    some good nights!

    Merry Christmas, my friends!
