Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!
Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

How-Dee!!!!
I was stationed at Vandenberg from 1975-76.
My birthplace and hometown. Some of the most exciting times as a kid was sitting on the hill and watching the rockets launch.
Grew up there living on base ‘64 - ‘68. My dad was in the Air Defense Commmand. Fond memories of missile launches.
Just before Christmas one year, a friend was diagnosed with leukemia and was told she must begin chemotherapy immediately. Just a few weeks earlier, Kim had told friends how blessed and content she felt with a loving family, a comfortable home, and a new grandson. As she entered the hospital, Kim asked Jesus to make His presence known to her and to stay close.
The next 7 months of treatments followed by recovery in partial isolation became a season she calls “forced leisure.” She says she learned how to slow down, reflect quietly, and rest in God’s goodness, love, and perfect plan—regardless of whether or not she would be healed.
One of God’s promises to His people Israel became personal to Kim: “The Lord your God . . . will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing” (Zeph. 3:17).
Kim is in remission after a journey she says changed her life for the better. Now back in her busy routine, she often pauses to recapture the lessons of “forced leisure.”
How important that we—in good times or times of challenge—draw near to God’s loving heart to hear His voice and place our lives in His hands.
Read: Zephaniah 3:14-20
((((Lauren))))! *rubbing eyes*
Is it really you! :) Good to see ya!
David was stationed at Vandenberg when he was going through
missle school as a 2nd Lt. He lived in Lompok and I visited
him several times and toured the beautiful grounds of that
base. We also took a road trip to Santa Barbara and to St.
Simeon to William Randolph Hurst’s amazing mountain home.
Evening, Lauren, Kathy. Hope all is well.
I had many TDYs here from Los Angeles AFS 60s to 90s.
