Beautiful day! Took a longer walk outside in the frosty sunshine. Kelly’s family came up about 11am, and we had Abie & Bimbo’s pizza for lunch. The boys still had schoolwork and a few zoom classes; Peyton and Matt washed their honkin’ big truck with their power washer!
I called Sprint (Apple) about a question on my iCloud storage, and 40 minutes later it was still unresolved. They are going to call me back… Next I have to call Comcast about getting a new promotional package. Always something.
Today I will share Micah’s message from Old Mahoning. They had a guest speaker who runs an orphanage in Uganda and I listed to his story first, then Micah’s message: God has a plan and a purpose. We know there are people who make a difference in the world by what they do. Faith is the foundation, and add prayer, obedience, hope, and compassion. We should reach out to everyone; God still cares, all the time. DON’T be like the others; Step out and be different. What does God want US to do?
In 1791 Congress established the US Mint (And no, it’s not M&M candy). In 1837 President Andrew Jackson and Congress recognized the Republic of Texan, and in 1845 Florida became the 27th state. Anne Sullivan began teaching 6 year old blind-deaf Helen Keller in 1887. In 1910, John D Rockefeller Jr announced his retirement from the Rockefeller Foundation to devote full time to being a philanthropist – and why is this important, you asked? I’m glad you did! John D Rockefeller Jr. funded the restoration of Colonial Williamsburg, from which stemmed the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation, which keeps this wonderful history alive! Thank you, Mr. Rockefeller! The Star Spangled Banner officially became the US National Anthem in 1931, and Mt. Rushmore was dedicated in 1933. And in 1986 ‘Master of Puppets’ – 3rd album – was released by Metallica. Alexander Graham Bell was born in 1847 and Lou Costello died in 1959.
