All things work for the good, for those that love God

In my last post I spoke about crime and how it has touched one particular family here with the murder of a young mother.  Ginni and I were able to get together with the mother of the murdered girl and we had a great conversation.  While much healing is needed, our conversation seemed to be well received.  While baptized a Catholic, over the years this woman has migrated to another church and, to my surprise, the pastor of that church has not been that supportive.  I ask you all to please support us with prayer as we continue to support this family.  While grieving is needed to deal with the death, hope springs eternal that maybe this tragedy would result in this woman, and her extended family returning to the Catholic church.  God is good, even in the midst of evil like this.  Scripture says, all things work for the good for those that love God.  We believe it and trust that even this situation can be used by God to bear good fruit.  Please keep us in your prayers. - Peace
