Children are a gift from the LORD!

Dear Friends of InFaith: Northwest Oregon,

 Behold, children are a gift of the Lord...  (Psalm 127:3a)

 Praise God!  Caroline and I are celebrating the birth of our eighth grandchild, Margaret May, born at 5:38 Tuesday morning!  Proud parents Jacob and Emma are now safely at home with their little blessing.  Big sister Jamie (now almost 2 years old) seems a bit bemused by the company of someone smaller than her in the household.  Little does she know that this "thing" is likely to become her best friend for the rest of her life.

 After a couple of "middle-of-the-night" trips to help out, Caroline and I are back home this morning. Thank you all for your prayers.  Thank you also for understanding why my "weekly memo" is very late this week, and why I had to reschedule a number of meetings at the last minute. We hope to be back on schedule soon!

 Here are a few upcoming ministry events on that schedule.  We pray you can join us!

  • Sandy Fellowship Breakfast, Wednesday, May 21, 9 AM at Tollgate Inn

  • NWxNW ministry leaders' fellowship, Tuesday, May 27, 3-5 PM at the Brownlow home in Clatskanie

  • InFaith Portland Pastors' Prayer, Thursday, June 12, 10 AM at Woodland Park Chapel

 For details on these and other upcoming InFaith: Northwest Oregon gatherings, please go to our web page at www.nworinfaith.org and click on the "Upcoming Events" tab.

 May God abundantly bless you as you reach out to your neighbors in the love of Jesus!
