I am assuming that this is a picture of you VF. Communion is all set up. It is a great photo even if it is grainy it still gives us a very good idea of who you are. May God richly bless you and yours (including Bella) on His day.

Good man, great photo, obviously not taken by you lol ;) prayers for Bella...when does she go for her next appointment ?

@Lorraine: In about a month or so, I think. The cardiologist told us to call his office to see when he'll next be in Tampa -- his main office is about 175 miles from here, in Gainesville, FL. He circuit-rides to Tampa every couple of months and that's a lot closer. He saw her first at the start of June; said he wanted to see her again in about 4-5 months. So that puts us in Sept/Oct, I think. My wife and daughter took her there the first time.

I'm happy to see a photo of you 'at work', my friend -=- what a striking image of you at the pulpit.
The communion service is beautiful; it reminds me of the sterling silver used in our church in CT.
I'll think of you this morning when at our service, as you deliver your message to your flock!

Sunday blessings for Bella and her family!

It may be only a bit grainy but it is a magnificent capture , well framed and goes very well in sephia. An excelltent view into your work.
Thankfully there is some form of treatment to help in Bella's health. That is a long drive even to Tampa. He must be an excellent cardiologist.
There is the Animal Emergency facility in Largo, FL that has an entire team of vet specialists including dental and a good size facility. I had to use it a few time for my precious cat Nicta years back.
Teeth issues in pets (and people) can cause many other health problems.
Bella is in the best of care obviously. We all care about her!

I thought all the preachers in the South usually were waving something as they preached about "fire and brimstone", but I don't see you waving anything! ;-)
I am assuming that you are not wearing your mountian man attire in this picture, are you?
A shame about the grain, but a wonderful image of a man doing His work.

God bless you - Happy Sunday!

@Chris: Hahaha. Careful with those stereotypes, Chris.

Oh, and I did have that mountain man stuff on under the robe... well, ok, maybe not -- but I might have been thinking about wearing it.

May the Lord bless you also.
