1. Abide with me! Fast falls the eventide;
The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide.
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, oh, abide with me!

2. Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away;
Change and decay in all around I see.
O Thou, who changest not, abide with me!

3. Not a brief glance I beg, a passing word,
But as Thou dwell'st with Thy disciples, Lord,
Familiar, condescending, patient, free.
Come not to sojourn, but abide with me.

4. Come not in terror, as the King of kings,
But kind and good, with healing in Thy wings;
Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea.
Come, Friend of sinners, thus abide with me.

Happy Flag Day To All!

Dear Connie,

I guess almost everyone loves a parade. One of the largest Flag Day Parades in our nation is held each June, in nearby Troy, NY, the home of Uncle Sam Wilson, meat packer during the War of 1812. We have missed it this year, as it was held earlier in the week, but our thoughts are toward our country this morning.

Our thoughts are also toward your family. Jeffrey will be remembered in the celebration of the Holy Eucharist, at St. George's.

I hope we hear good news from you in a few weeks regarding the successful completion of your nursing program. It's a tough one, but you can do it.

God bless you always, and of course, God bless Jeffrey.

Dear Connie,,

Jeffrey was remembered in Holy Eucharist this afternoon. A beautiful young boy was baptized. I have known Sean's dad and grandparents for a long time. It is always special to observe a baptism and to renew my own baptismal covenant during such a service. I wonder how many times that would be, if I could count them all.

When the Eucharist was over, I stayed in church, a while, as I almost always do, to pray for you, and also to pray for other parents, whose children are in heaven.

In going over some guest books tonight, I noticed one of the other mothers has posted several pictures of her children playing ball. We had one large blue ball, that we used in the pool, which was almost too big for an adult to catch, as well as pails of golf balls, Nerf balls, basketballs, bouncy balls, tennis balls, four square balls, footballs, and many other kinds. I know Jeffrey had a keen interest in baseball and also played golf, so I am sure you had a garage full of balls, too.

God bless you always.

Do not let your Church close its eyes, O Lord, to the plight of the poor and neglected, the homeless and the destitute, the old and the sick, the lonely and those who have no one to care for them. Give us the vision and compassion with which you so richly endowed your servant William Augustus Muhlenberg, that we may labor tirelessly to heal those who are broken in body or spirit, and to turn their sorrow into joy; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.

When I was thinking about today this hymn came to mind immediately so I wanted to share it today. Know that I'm praying!
1. There is a fountain filled with blood
Drawn from Immanuel's veins,
And sinners plunged beneath that flood
Lose all their guilty stains.

2. The dying thief rejoiced to see
That fountain in his day;
And there have I, as vile as he,
Washed all my sins away.

3. Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious blood
Shall never lose its power
Till all the ransomed Church of God
Be saved to sin no more.

4. E'er since by faith I saw the stream
Thy flowing wounds supply,
Redeeming love has been my theme
And shall be till I die.

5. When this poor lisping, stammering tongue
Lies silent in the grave,
Then in a nobler, sweeter song
I'll sing Thy power to save.

Still praying but wanted to share such special verses that remind us all that much more importantly the Holy Spirit Himself is praying for each of us perfectly according to His Will.
Romans 8:26-27 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

Almighty God, you have given your only-begotten Son to take our nature upon him, and to be born [this day] of a pure virgin: Grant that we, who have been born again and made your children by adoption and grace, may daily be renewed by your Holy Spirit; through our Lord Jesus Christ, to whom with you and the same Spirit be honor and glory, now and for ever.

Among other thinks, I sponsored a candidate for Cursillo, which meant I had to drive her to and from the retreat center last weekend, attend her closing service, and take a three hour spot on the prayer wheel. I was also having some difficulties with my car.

To My Jeffy- Through out this past year I could not have asked for a better guardian angel to guide and watch over me, I want to thank you for that. Each and every day I think of you and your incredible strength and it encourages me to be a better person. When my alarm goes off in the morning playing "Its a Great Day to Be Alive" I am reminded to get my butt out of bed and live that day to the fullest just like you always did. Anytime I feel the warm sunshine on my skin or lately the cool fall breeze I can't help but smile (a big cheesy mira smile) because I know you are there. Your presence is a constant reminder that life is precious, and that family and friends (especially ones like you) are a gift from God. So thank you Jeffery for being such an amazing person and an even more inspiring angel. I appreciate you and your place in my life more and more each and every day that passes. I love you Jeffy!

An Appropriate Hymn:

By all your saints still striving,
for all your saints at rest,
your holy Name, O Jesus
for evermore be blessed.
You rose, our King victorious,
that we might wear the crown
and ever shine in splendor
reflected from your throne.

For Luke, beloved physician,
all praise, whose Gospel shows
the healer of the nations,
the one who shares our woes.
Your wine and oil, O Savior,
upon our spirits pour,
and with true balm of Gilead
anoint us evermore.

Then let us praise the Father
and worship God the Son
and sing to God the Spirit,
eternal Three in One,
till all the ransomed number
who stand before the throne
ascribe all power and glory
and praise to God alone.

Continuing to pray so very hard!
Isaiah 43:1-2 But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine. When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.

Am so glad you had that time away. Guess it worked out okay that you had to study. I love the ocean!
Continuing to pray as always!
Philippians 4:19-20 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

Besides picking the verse one of the hardest things I do is try to find different ways to say "I'm praying." I'm praying for your family!
Psalms 5:1-3 Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my meditation. Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray. My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.

Hi Zach, Helen, Jerry and Girls, It sure seems funny not getting ready to go back to school. I am already babysitting Mason, Bridget's little boy. We are already working on sounds...animals. He has the Hh sound down because a dog goes HHH with his tongue out. It is alot of fun but I am already missing my school family. I do plan to sub once the beginning of school is over but probably only at Northern. I am afraid of the older kids!!! Just got my email up and running at home but am not on here but about once a week. You know me and computers never did get along. Take care and know that you are always in my prayers. Let me know if I can do anything for any of you. Love, Pam Mains
