ONE

“One is the loneliest number that you’ll ever do
Two can be as bad as one
It’s the loneliest number since the number one.”

But what if it isn’t. What if Three Dog Night is wrong and that one is not the loneliest number.

Camping: The Holy Spirit in Community

My family and I recently went on our first camping trip in Colorado. Really, it was our first ever family campout. My kids loved it! One of the main reasons they loved it was because we went with friends. Honestly, if we had not been invited to go with them we probably wouldn’t have done it. But since we did we experienced something beautiful and created a lasting memory, one our family may never forget.

My Easter Hope

I attended a Maundy/Holy Thursday service.  I went because I thought I might witness the Stations of the Cross. They did not give the Stations that evening. I missed it and it is one of the traditions that I miss from my Catholic days. I did not go the next day of any other day afterward. I thought, “this may be last time I go to church.” Little did I know, God had different plans.
