Eternity utters a day ...

Today after four weeks of busy-ness, activity and what seems to be non-stop activity, I had a chance to rest ...

The Jewish rabbi Abraham Heschel, once said of the Sabbath, that it is a moment in time when eternity utters a day ... Today was a much needed, much appreciated Sabbath day for me ...

There were no Church activities to fill the day, so instead I read, slept, and ran a couple of errands for Big Brothers & Big Sisters ... Getting the mail today, I was again struck by the donations that continue to flow in for our rebuilding efforts. The mometary gifts of every size are greatly appreciated, and will be used when we begin rebuilding.

The words of support and encouragement have been simply inspiring. They have come from people of all ages, and every day I look forward to reading the each day ... Thanks to one and all.

One thing we are looking for are any interior pictures of the Church, the stained glass, or even the pews - anything ... if they are sent by email, they may be used here, but we are wanting to gather them to help remember what we've lost, and in the hopes that we can put together some note cards and possibly a book ... we will contact the photographer for permission first ...

so, if you have any photos of the interior of our church let me know, or send them to the email for the chruch ...

For now - the rest has been much appreciated and much needed ... maybe tomorrow will be another day of rest ... for now:

L'chaim
