SPOTLIGHTING SENIORS
By Janet James
Food for thought – If all is not lost, where is it?
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We had a short week at the center. Due to weather and holiday we were only open on Tue. and Wed.
Since we were closed on Monday we played Bingo on Tuesday. There were 14 players. The secret prize was won by Valerie Alva. The blackout amount of $36.30 was won by Monica Urias.
Another Christmas Season
Over the last several months at the Hearts Together Church of Christ, we have been studying together on Sunday morning the subject of heaven and the afterlife. To me, this is a very fascinating kind of study because you get to talk about things that you know, as well things that you don’t know. This is different than studying history where you merely reconstruct things that have already happened; when talking about the afterlife, you are trying to speak of realities that have not taken place yet; at least, not among us who are living. But in many ways it is appropriate to discuss this subject during the Christmas season, because Christmas, when it is best understood, is the season that teaches us how to anticipate the second coming of Christ.
