Front Page News!

The local Stars and Stripes reporter did a story covering a radio show I and a Chaplain Assistant host on the local AFN radio station. We made the front page of the Japan edition! I was quite surprised to unfold the Sunday paper and find myself staring at myself!

The story was included in the Pacific edition. It’s on page 31 of the 20 May 2007 Pacific Edition. You can look at it through www.estripes.osd.mil

This radio show has been a lot of fun and an excellent community outreach!

Greater than Faith

I heard a great sermon today! I think the title was "Greater than Faith". The point was, God’s response is always greater than our faith. How true! Our doubt doesn’t modulate God’s response to us. Rather our faith is built from God’s love — we love because He loved us first!

I don’t think the preacher mentioned it, but I recalled Jesus teaching that faith the size of a mustard seed can do mighty things!

Home Alone!

Alicia went to a spiritual retreat this weekend. Thankfully, I and the boys seemed to have survived! (She’ll be home soon.) This was an excellent follow-up to mother’s day! We all appreciate mom that much more and will be glad to have her home!

It didn’t help that it has rained heavily most of the time trapping us indoors. Our biggest challenge now is getting the house back in shape!

Now for a big picture

The small file worked great! This is so much better than blogger!

Here’s a bigger pic:

Now, here’s a link from Smugmug:

Testing

I couldn’t get blogger to let Contribut put in photos. Let’s see how it works here!

This is a super lo-res file so file size shouldn’t be a limitation!

This is a test using Adobe Contribute CS3. I’m wanting to see how to upload a picture.

It would’nt let me upload a local pic. So now here’s an attempt from my SmugMug site.

This is a picture of cherry blossoms in Hirosaki, Japan.
