GOD first...Heavenly Father, no matter where we are or what we are doing, You are always there watching over us. Every time we stray, as humans, we betray our promises to do Your will. We ask for forgiveness and trust in Your Amazing Grace to have mercy on us and help us to be Thy servants as we pray in the name of our Dear Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen. Pray for those who are ill, grieving, suffering or are in harm’s way.
Joke Break: A guy wakes up in the hospital with severe head injuries and the nurse says, “What happened to you?”
”Well,” he says, “I was playing golf yesterday with my wife and we teed off at the second hole. I hit a beautiful drive two hundred and eighty yards down the middle of the fairway. My wife teed off and she sliced the ball into a field full of cows. We searched for several minutes, and then I lifted up the tail of one of the cows and spotted the ball lodged up its ass. All I said was ‘this looks like yours, dear, and that’s the last thing I remember.”

Kaffe Klatch was held last Thursday at the Parish Hall at St. Paul Lutheran Church with 11 hearty souls participating as usual with an assortment of desserts and laughter. It never gets dull. All the things that were said were lost as we walked out the door. Doors do that to us old fogies. One of the ladies went to the lady’s lounge, and we waited and waited for her to come back to our table and after a while, some of us became concerned. It seems that her coat caused her delay. The knot in her coat got tangled up with the commode lid hinges and she couldn’t get up. After struggling for several minutes, she worked out of her coat and said that she thought she might have to unbolt the whole seat. In telling the situation, everyone had a vision of her coming back carrying the whole seat and lid. As she told of her experience, each detail was embellished with so much laughter that those who were laughing at her, started hold their sides from laughing. It was her 89th birthday too. We all sang Happy Birthday and thanked her for her story that brought tears of laughter and fond memories. One doesn’t forget something like that. The coffee was good, and the friendship was beyond good ole times. See you next week.
