Prayers are needed for Dillon who is homeless and trying to turn his life around.  Please lift him up in prayer asking the Holy Spirit to help him find work, decent clothing and a place to live.

Bob Olstrom update: Bob's pacemaker operation went well and he will be coming home today.  I was told that the hospital food was very bland.  The way I look at it is, if we can complain about the food, we're OK.

The latest Cascades Connections is available by clicking here.  Of interest is that the specially called Cascades meeting scheduled for the 29th will be streamed.  The address is on the web

Scott Cossu on piano and Lonnie Mardis on electric guitar were in Concert here Friday night—It was a wonderful performance comprised of a blend of music hard to describe since it included everything from boogie to lullabies.  Joe Coyne was great as the MC for he provided a humorous blend of family history, political satire and musical insight. If you didn't attend you missed a great evening.

After the performance a marvelous array of cookies and volcanoes were served.  I had never eaten volcanoes before, but they were so good I feared fights might erupt over the remaining few.

If there was a downside to the performance it was the lack of attendance.  I've heard people complain that nothing happens in Reedsport, but when it does, where are they? The same thing happened at the talent show—wonderful performers and so few spectators.  There is so much work in getting talent and so much effort into putting on shows that bring name performers to Reedsport—and then when so few show it is disheartening.

Sigh...

Life can be frustrating and painful.  Very often the act of telling someone your problems, troubles or concerns relieves the stress and makes you feel better and more at peace.  So, if you’re feeling stressed out and need an ear to listen, drop by—I will be glad to sit, listen and help if I can. Everything is always held in the strictest confidence.
