FReeper Canteen ~ Sunday Chapel ~ THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION ~ 25 November 2018
Serving The Best Troops and Veterans In The World !! | The Canteen Crew

THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION

During my second month of night school, our professor gave a pop quiz. I was a conscientious student and had breezed through the questions, until I read the last one: "What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school?"

Obviously this was some kind of joke. I had seen the cleaning woman several times. She was tall, dark-haired and in her 50s, but how would I know her name? I handed in my paper leaving the last question blank.

Before class ended, one student asked if the last question would count on our quiz grade. "Absolutely," said the professor. "In your lives, in your careers, you will meet many people. All are significant. They deserve your attention and care."

I've never forgotten that lesson. I also learned her first name was Dorothy.

I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving.

It was a quiet Thanksgiving since it was just the two of us but it was a good day.

I hope you had a fantabulous one.

Now get to bed! LOL! You have a long day ahead with an early start to it. Good luck with everything Monday.

Howdy, E.G.C. ((HUGZ))

Did you have that one more nice day for your romp at the lake with Gizmo? Are you expecting any snow today or is it supposed to stay north of you?

Well, we're under a Wind Advisory today for winds 20-30 with gust to 45. it's already windy up in Northwest Oklahoma and that wind is supposed to come down here later today.

We have power blinks when winds get strong like that. I moved the Windows 10 to the gadget room for reboot in case we have a power blink or outage.

We'll see what happens.

Hoo boy! We’re all too familiar with those winds AND the power blinks. I hope it doesn’t get too bad there. At least they aren’t calling for snow as well. The poor folks in KS are in for blizzards. :-(

Wishing you luck getting through the day without any problems.

Indeed. Ice is MUCH worse than snow.

DEAR LORD, who suffered torment, agony, and death upon the Cross to free our souls from the chains of iniquity, protect and defend our troops. Guide them in the performance of their duties. Strengthen them to endure hardship, danger and deprivation in Your service. Let their efforts free the people of Iraq and Afghanistan from the chains of terror and slavery, foster a lasting peace in the region, and bring all to a greater share in Your Mercy. Amen.
