Warm & Humid

Our public ministry today marked the beginning of invitation distribution. The invitations of course are to the April 3rd Memorial of Christ's death and here this work is limited to inviting only those we know speak English. No looking for additional English speakers. So it involves a little walking around in very warm weather where one needs to carry a water bottle. Frankly, today I found it sapped my energy.

Next to the Hall somebody had a pet lamb so I took a little video. Possibly our granddaughters will particularly enjoy it since they seem to love sheep.


As an indication of our granddaughters' interest in sheep I provide a sample of artwork by Alexandria. It is a portrait of a stuffed toy lamb named Sheepie.

The art has been jazzed up somewhat by an image manipulation app.
I hope Alexandria doesn't mind.

As a footnote I will add that the above image is of a drawing shown to me in a Skype chat. I did a screen capture of it and then added a few effects.

Well now, I guess we can't all be sheep,
can we!

In service had an interesting conversation with a man on the street. He is a Mexican Jew. His mother was Jewish and he spoke excellent English and French. He attended McGill university many years ago. He was lamenting the use of technology today and the need to nourish the spirit. Just up our alley, but in the end he would not accept anything to read. Some good points were made, so you never know what could develop. He and his wife adopted 6 children in addition to 4 of their own, so obviously good-hearted people.
