Parents Tears . . .

I was called out to a scene yesterday afternoon that broke my heart. A house caught fire and a young child perished. Two of us from the MPD chaplaincy were there to serve the family for a couple of hours. Both parents are torn up as you might guess. Pray for them as they begin to feel this loss and recover from it. Pray for the first responders, police, fire, paramedics and chaplains as all of us deal with this loss. No words of wisdom, today only thoughts about promises of the hope of glory that awaits all of us. May God grant this family peace and comfort in the coming days.

The Nativity Story . . .

We are excited about the release of the movie "The Nativity Story". This story has the ability to impact our community for Christ, like no other movie since the "Passion". This story is told from Mary and Joseph's point of view. This story line is developed very well and is the best quality.
