Terrific Tuesday; Terrible Debate

Abbey was feeling better today. She went to school Charlee's not congested. Jared will struggle with allergies. However, we had heavy rain early this morning and late in the afternoon. Everything was dry and dusty. Rain is so refreshing.

Revival Services

During the Noon Service, Gary gave some very practical advise on handling conflict. Before the evening service, he met with the children. He knew all the cartoon and popular characters to mention t0 garner energetic responses.

Even though it was raining before the services, we had good attendance tonight. The children sang their "Twiggle" Song. Selina Smith does a great job working with them. Gary preached from Psalm 100. This was an encouraging message. We all have so much for which to be thankful. He made some humorous comparisons between fans at sporting events and church attenders.

Tomorrow morning, Gary will speak the the Fellowship of Christian Students at the High School.

Presidential Debate

I listened to most of the debate tonight on Yahoo!. I have a question. I have listened to both of the debates between Obama and McCain. How can you have these encounters and never question the candidates for the highest office in the land on the issues of abortion, judicial appointments, gun control, or immigration? Yes, the economy is bad, but a candidate's beliefs regarding unborn children is crucial. The other issues are key. I am frustrated by this oversight. Is anyone else?
