    Farewell Address at dinner by the Parish for my wife Lee and I. It has some humor yet I believe it touches the heart of who we are called to be in Christ. At the end I passed out 125 Red Wax Lips and and 125 signs that state "I Kiss Frogs" with a picture of a frog with big red lips.

    It just wouldn't feel right ... if I didn't begin with ... a story. And at the end of the story ... there is a little surprise ... that just might require a group picture. Well ...

    The Victory Of The Crucified King

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 25, 2022

    Pearl Harbor (December 7, 1941), the assassination of President Kennedy (November 22, 1963), and the terrorist act upon America (September 11, 2001) are all considered "infamous" days. The true "day of infamy" was 2000 years ago, when we attempted to kill God Incarnate.

    The central theme of the Gospel is that the Lord Jesus was placed upon the cross for the redemption of our sins. It was an act of mercy, love, grace, and salvation that we did not deserve (Romans 5:6-11). It was also the day that rebellious humanity shook its fist at God Almighty, and the ...read more
