Have you seen Sin Nombre, the dramatic movie which depicts the struggles of Latin American immigrants trying to make their way through Mexico to the US? (Mexico is not an immigrant friendly place.) It's a little rough and bloody. I borrowed it from the public library.

I just realized that I was ordained 25 years ago last Sunday, June 20th, at the 100th Annual Meeting of the Evangelical Covenant Church. The 125th Annual Meeting starts tomorrow in St Paul, Minnesota. But I won't be going this year. Somebody has to hold-down the fort. I will be speaking at the 9 and 10:45 a.m. services at Hope Covenant Church in Chandler this Sunday. And then we have a MasterPiece Church gathering in the evening at our house.

Congratulations on 25 years since your ordination. May the Lord grant you at least that many more years in His service.

Eveyone can go to the Annual Meeting to hear the speakers as they are being streamed on the Covenant site.
