FReeper Canteen ~ Sunday Chapel ~ ALL I REALLY NEED TO KNOW....<br> I LEARNED FROM NOAH'S ARK ~ 22 March 2026
Serving The Best Troops and Veterans In The World !! | The Canteen Crew

ALL I REALLY NEED TO KNOW....
I LEARNED FROM NOAH'S ARK


1. Plan ahead. It wasn't raining when Noah built the ark.

2. Stay fit. When you're 600 years old, someone might ask you to do something REALLY big.

3. Don't listen to critics -- do what has to be done.

4. Build on high ground.

5. For safety's sake, travel in pairs.

6. Two heads are better than one.

7. Speed isn't always an advantage. The cheetahs were on board, but so were the snails.

8. If you can't fight or flee -- float!

9. Take care of your animals as if they were the last ones on earth.

10. Don't forget that we're all in the same boat.

11. When the doo-doo gets really deep, don't sit there and complain -- shovel!!!

12. Stay below deck during the storm.

13. Remember that the ark was built by amateurs and the Titanic was built by professionals.

14. If you have to start over, have a friend by your side.

15. Remember that the woodpeckers INSIDE are often a bigger threat than the storm outside.

16. Don't miss the boat.

17. No matter how bleak it looks, there's always a rainbow on the other side.

18. "Stop what you're doing, and do what God says!"

Les Miserables: Do you hear the people sing: Sung by 17 Jean Valjeans from around the world

Comments below the video that are very pertinent today.

“The fact it’s done in so many languages tells us that this musical is so beloved and felt ALL AROUND THE WORLD❤ “

Do you hear the people sing?
Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes!

Will you join in our crusade?
Who will be strong and stand with me?
Somewhere beyond the barricade
Is there a world you long to see?

Then join in the fight
That will give you the right to be free!!

Do you hear the people sing?
Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people

Who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes!

Will you give all you can give
So that our banner may advance
Some will fall and some will live
Will you stand up and take your chance?
The blood of the martyrs
Will water the meadows of France!

To: All


Dear God:
I ask that no Airman, Coast Guardsman,
Marine, Sailor, Soldier, Reservist, National Guardsman, or Merchant Marine
feel alone or forgotten.

O Israel, hope in the Lord;
For with the Lord there is loving kindness,
And with Him is abundant redemption.
And He will redeem Israel
From all his iniquities.

Psalm 130:7 & 8

Howdy, Kathy.
It was a beautiful day here. Sunny, a light breeze, and 83 for the high.
No Champ time today. Mowing can wait a little longer. I cleaned leaves out and weeded one of the flower beds at the old house this afternoon. IF my back allows, I’ll weed the one on the other side of the front porch tomorrow. Irises are coming up and needed to get uncovered so they can get the sunshine they need.

I just finished supper and when it settles a little, I’ll go out to rake all the dead stuff to the edge of the driveway and burn it.

Looked pretty nice up there today but now clouds appear to be moving in. The weather info posted in Lake Hood’s chat an hour ago said it was 29 at that time. HEAT WAVE! LOL It’s been a while since it was that warm.

Getting your work knocked out so you can chill tomorrow?

19. Prepare for black swans, but don’t add them to your list.

Which is why we only expect white swans, the black ones were never on the list.

Extra prayers for Israel...

He Who blessed our forefathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob - may He bless the fighters of the Israel Defense Force, who stand guard over our land and the cities of our G-d from the border of the Lebanon to the desert of Egypt, and from the Great Sea unto the approach of the Aravah, on the land, in the air, and on the sea.

May HASHEM cause the enemies who rise up against us to be struck down before them. May the Holy One, Blessed is He, preserve and rescue our fighting men from every trouble and distress and from every plague and illness, and may He send blessing and success in their every endeavor.

May He lead our enemies under their sway and may He grant them salvation and crown them with victory. And may there be fulfilled for them the verse: For it is Hashem, your G-d, Who goes with you to battle your enemies for you to save you.

G-d bless and keep your children safe, Alouette.
