CHARLESTOWN, Mass. (Jan. 14, 2008) The first major snowfall of the New Year blankets the USS Constitution. Despite the weather "Old Ironsides" remained open for free public tours.

January 21 Creations Song
The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Psalm 19:1 Today's Scripture & Insight:
Using acoustic astronomy, scientists can observe and listen to the sounds and pulses of space. Theyve found that stars dont orbit in silence in the mysterious night sky, but rather generate music. Like humpback whale sounds, the resonance of stars exists at wavelengths or frequencies that may not be heard by the human ear. Yet, the music of stars and whales and other creatures combine to create a symphony that proclaims the greatness of God.
Psalm 19:14 says, The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge. They have no speech, they use no words; no sound is heard from them. Yet their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.
In the New Testament, the apostle Paul reveals that in Jesus all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible . . . all things have been created through him and for him (Colossians 1:16). In response, the natural worlds heights and depths sing to its Maker. May we join creation and sing out the greatness of the One who with the breadth of his hand marked off the [vast] heavens (Isaiah 40:12).

Greetings to all at the Canteen!
To all our military men and women, past and present,
THANK YOU

Reading about the actions of our heroes who receive the Medal of Honor takes my breath away and tonight is no exception. One can't help but ask, "Where do they find such courage?"

Kathy, thank you for posting this about Desmond. He was a family friend on my Mother’s side and he deserves all the recognition we can give him for the service he gave us.
