Wonderful Fathers' Day Today!!!





What a wonderful time we had at the Iraan First United Methodist Church today! As always, there was great fellowship in the church kitchen and fellowship hall. Belinda was so animated when she was talking about the imminent opening of the wellness center in McCamey, it was difficult to take a picture of her when her hands weren't moving. (She says that her time living in Italy is what really amplified her hand-gesture communication.)
Pastor Charles led the congregation in giving the men-folk in the congregation a special Fathers' Day blessing. Afterwards, he presented each man with a pocket-sized WD-40 pen, so they were ready to tackle all the life-situations that might require its application. The ladies in the congregation were given a list of things that the men can now handle. It is amazing to learn about ALL the the ways that WD-40 can make our lives better; to learn more, you can click on this official list of 2000+ uses for it! What is really amazing is that the primary ingredient of WD-40 is "fish oil!"
We acknowledged that as miraculous as WD-40 is, God who is the author of all (even WD-40)... is SO AWESOME! His love, mercy and grace transform this world each and every day: How miraculous is that?!
AND... on then on the trip from Iraan to McCamey, we were awe-struck at what is the raw beauty of this place we call home: "west Texas: Yee-haw!"
Praise be to God from whom ALL blessing flow!!!
