We have just begun a blog to share thoughts & experiences with friends & family.

Every 3-6 weeks we meet in Cottage Grove with 2 other couples, Mike & Janet Thompson, Pat & Heather Hughes, for Bible study. We are currently examining Phillip Yancy's book PRAYER.
There are so many pithy statements that we'd like to share. Here are a few:

"Prayer invites me to lower defenses & present the self that no other person fully knows to a God who already knows."

"I must ensure that my prayers are heartfelt & not a performance."

"To pray is to walk in the full light of God, and to say simply, without holding back, 'I am human, & you are God.' " Henri Nouwen

As we learn more about blogging, we hope to make this site more graphically appealing & to update you on our activities.
