It was a good Sunday in the Missions, with everyone coming together well to worship God and enjoy the fellowship that comes naturally from communion in the Mystical Body of Christ.
Speaking of which, there was nearly a disaster over a cake and a flower. That didn't happen, praise God, but I was asked for advice.
"Padre, it didn't seem right. I've had enough," said a barely restrained, decorated Veteran Crew Chief (VCC). I pondered this, it was a moment, defeat and victory hung in balance.
"VCC, think of it as an ambush.You were ambushed by a Pointsettia."
"Ummm, yeah, I guess," replied a polite but hardly convinced VCC.
"So how do you fight through this ambush?"
Silence, after all, this is dangerous ground.
"You walk around it, Chief."
Laughter ensued and all was right with the world again. The day ended around a fire pit out in the country, where some churchpeople are building a compound and more power to them.
It was good being out under the stars in the clean country air and away from the NFL.
God bless,
LSP

Did you bless the gin? If so, I don't see the problem.
Juliette, I'm not saying that gin is Mother's Ruin but I'm not saying it isn't, either.
Sounds like a lovely day, LSP. I would, however, like some details on that flower/cake story. Thank you in advance.
Adrienne, there are some places where even Angels fear to tread.
Word is that the UK is going to demobilize the Royal Marines. I sent you an article in e-mail. The reference is here https://publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm201719/cmselect/cmdfence/622/62202.htm
There are some old Royal Marines who will be deep in their gin because of this.
LL, this is OUTRAGEOUS.
I've poured myself a stiff gin.
