And as always you did an excellent job summarizing the situation and focusing on the important messages embedded within. However, walking into the church Sunday morning I chose to ignore the protestors in favor of paying full attention to you, the love within our church, and most of all God. I simply said a silent prayer for them, and I walked on by. Sometimes ignoring the "elephant in the room" can help to make it powerless. Just a thought......But, another brilliant and compassionate blog as always-and really loving the photos of all who came to worship together, with you. You held a wonderful service!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7044166228612663288.post-71333965673941527092015-04-07T11:11:47.986-04:002015-04-07T11:11:47.986-04:00God bless you and your ministryGod bless you and your ministryBrian Suntkenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17723504859952055707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7044166228612663288.post-81240558426673607382015-04-07T09:57:22.838-04:002015-04-07T09:57:22.838-04:00Peace and Grace from your sister in Christ!
