 Community Events:  

1.   I made a mistake.  Our next Habitat special day is not this Friday, June 8, but June 21, Friday.   Look for the neighborhood behind the Home Depot on Central, 11th & Ave. E.  We have 3 more special JSMinistry days, June  21 (a Friday), July 13, and August 3.  A person may also work any
Saturday.  The house will need about 18 Saturdays of work. 

2.   Romeos’ lunch Friday, June 7, 1:00, as usual.  Jason's, Collin Creek.

 3.   The  Women's Lunch Group on Thursdays at noon is on.   For info talk with Carol, Bernadette, or Maureen.

4.  Note: I worked with Bona Responds this week in OK City and hand delivered our community's support, $1000.  They are enormously grateful and I am so grateful to be part of you people, such a generous community.  I have returned home physically and emotionally worn out.  More details coming.

Footnote: twice in the past month I have been so proud to be part of you people, our community.  I was told in OK that Bona Responds' single biggest support is you folks.  Earlier, Brent told me the same thing about Soul's Harbor and you folks.  I am most humbled to be part of you.  Thanks.

    True? 

     Whenever I'm disappointed with my spot in life, I stop and think about little Jamie Scott. Jamie was trying out for a part in the school play. His mother told me that he'd set his heart on being in it, though she feared he would not be chosen.

    On the day the parts were awarded, I went with her to collect him after school. Jamie rushed up to her, eyes shining with pride and excitement. 'Guess what, Mom,' he shouted, and then said those words that will remain a lesson to me. ‘I've been chosen to clap and cheer.'
