Oh that birth forever blessed When the Virgin full of grace, By the Holy Ghost conceiving Bore the Savior of our race And that Babe, the world’s Redeemer, First revealed His sacred face, evermore and evermore! http://feeds.feedburner.com/WeedonsBlog ..read more

…last evening to be with dear friends the Klingers and Van Ulfts and get in some six-handed pinochle (the night ended up one game for the men, one for the women). I’m afraid Stephanie made such a yummy cheese dish for appetizers that I made a pig of myself and had zero room left for dinner itself. When I thank God for the companions he grants us along the way, these folks are always included: http://feeds.feedburner.com/WeedonsBlog ..read more

Life has been…challenging! We’re still in the process of moving Cindi’s dad (hereafter, Opa) from the house next door to us, down to a duplex a block and a half away. The end is clearly in sight! We got the worst of the heavies moved in the last couple days. But the move has been hard on Opa. He fell one night and his apple watch called 911. The EMTs had to break through his front door to get to him. He also ended up in the hospital for a couple days due to some medication they gave him. But he made it home last Tuesday and was able to join us for Thanksgiving. Cindi’s aunt and her cousin came ..read more

…about St. Paul’s is the Thranksgiving Day Matins. It’s 9:00 a.m.  Conventional wisdom would tell you that there’s no way you can have a church service on the morning of Thanksgiving Day. St. Paul’s is, like, WRONG. Not only can you have it, you can pack it out with the people of God joyfully gathering for a brief service of thanksgiving and praise to our gracious Giver God. And that’s my grandson Henry serving as the acolyte and crucifer. http://feeds.feedburner.com/WeedonsBlog ..read more

Today I finished recording through Dec. 19. Am now on break until Dec. 2. I’m looking forward to the days of not writing and catching up with some chores around the house. Cindi’s aunt and cousin will join us for the Thanksgiving feast, so that will be 20 of us sitting down to dinner this year. I think they arrive Sunday or Monday of next week. Best of all: I come back for three weeks, and then it’s a two week break. It’s been hectic this fall, what with speaking engagements and trying to get Opa moved and settled into new digs, and empty out his old house.  http://feeds.feedburner.com/We ..read more

It was truly great to be with the saints up north (Fairgrove Michigan) for “A Holy Conversation” and to celebrate with Grace Lutheran Church and Pastor Haller their 75th anniversary. Here are some pics, though somehow I didn’t get one with Pr. Haller. He’ll have to send me the one the photographer did after the service: One thing I definitely decided though: I’m finishing my commitments through next year and then I really and truly am DONE with the public speaking gigs. So, since I’m driving to three of the next ones, I have will only have to take an airplane for this one m ..read more
