Lord,

May we never take our freedom for granted

and help us to strive so that this same freedom

may be experienced by everyone in our country,

especially the poor and the oppressed,

and eventually by all humankind.

Gilberto Delgado sent in this info that might help those of you who have had difficulty with one or more of our file attachments on the blog:

I heard that some in our community are having problems downloading the articles in the blog.

I do not know if they realize that the files are Word files.  So when they key on the highlighted titles, a Word file is downloaded to their computers.

The file name will probably appear on their desktops as a Word executable file.  They must them key or double key on that to bring up the program Word and the file contents.

It is a little different than most emails, since most of them are just text files in the email content.
