Good evening, Connie! Good evening, all!

Final exams tomorrow, and a week of psuedo-rest (paperwork and proctoring assignments) before it all starts all over again -- most likely with the same students. (Lord, give me strength. And patience.)

A Mutual Friend
I have called you friends. —John 15:15

Imagine being a visitor in a foreign land, showing up unannounced at a gathering of people you have never met and who have never heard of you—and then being allowed to address that group just a few minutes later. That can happen only if something breaks down barriers— something like mutual friends.

It happened when I took a missions team to a church service in Discovery Bay, Jamaica. Before we left the US, my friend Dorant Brown, a Jamaican pastor, recommended a church to attend. So when we arrived at the church, and I mentioned Pastor Brown, we were not only welcomed, but I was also asked to speak briefly and our team was asked to sing.

While sharing Dorant’s name was vital, I really don’t think it was that mutual friend who got us such a warm welcome. I think it was our shared Friend and Savior Jesus who opened our Jamaican friends’ hearts to our visit.

Have you experienced a connection with someone you just met when you tell them you too know Jesus? He’s a friend who laid down His life for us (John 15:13), and He makes brothers and sisters of all who believe (1 Peter 2:17).

Jesus. Our Savior. Our mutual Friend. He joins hearts around the world under the banner of His love.

Join hands, then, brothers of the faith,
Whate’er your race may be;
Who serves my Father as a son
Is surely kin to me. —Oxenham

Those who are drawn to Christ are drawn to each other.

Bible in One Year: Exodus 1-3; Matthew 14:1-21

WELCOME TO

(where our troops, allies and their families can refresh themselves)

Good morning, Everyone.
Good morning to our AWESOME Military, our Allies, and their families.

Thank you, Connie, for preparing the Canteen for today's activities.

I thought some of those Old Farmer's Advice were so true. Thanks for posting them.

Now for our local DC Metroland weather report

~ Today..... Partly cloudy skies this morning will become overcast during the afternoon. High 44F. Winds ENE at 5 to 10 mph.

~ Tonight..... Rain showers early becoming a steady light rain overnight. Snow or sleet may mix in. Low 34F. Winds NE at 10 to 15 mph. Chance of rain 80%.

Okay, this report looks bad but I think it'll be the snow/sleet in the mountains. It's 37 this morning so even if it moves into the area it won't stick.

Just two more months and the worst should be over.

A little trivia for cooler-talk:

Clint Eastwood is the subject of the unauthorized 1997 biography, "The Good, the Bad and the Very Ugly."

Vermont, Alaska, Hawaii, and Maine are the four states in the U.S. that do not allow billboards.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar racked up the greatest number of personal fouls in his professional career – 4,657 of them.

Honeybees navigate using the sun as a compass, even when it is hidden behind clouds - they find it via the polarization of ultraviolet light from areas of blue sky.

Time to make my rounds. But, you stay right where you are. Keep the troops entertained and the Canteen clean.........Cause.......if you don't........I'll tell Ma!

Remember, the Canteen is

Come on in and sit for a while. There's always plenty of coffee, pancakes, conversation, silliness, and plain old BS

REMEMBER THEM ....
