Marvelous time at Paradise Lutheran in Thomasville, PA, yesterday. Tim and Ann (FINKS from waaaay back) took wondeful care of me. I'm in the Baltimore airport waiting for my plane to Atlanta for those of you who are tracking. Here are the notable quotables from yesterday:
1. "In an era of texting, facebook, email, IM and cell phones, sharing highs and lows is face to face, incarnational, embodiment of God's love and care. People feel loved when they feel heard. We can "love them through" their problems." - Rev. Tim Seitz-Brown
2. The Clingon Blessing - (Grab the person and hold tight) "May Christ's love "cling on" to you!
3. And, from young Alex Evans (10ish), after I told everyone that sharing nightly highs, lows and laughter is "free drugs" and good medicine, Alex shouted out, "Then I'm momma's little pill box!"
Good stuff. If I can only get three quotes like this from each of the 75 cities...
