Billy Graham's Prayer For Our Nation

THIS MAN SURE HAS A GOOD VIEW OF WHAT'S HAPPENING TO OUR COUNTRY!

'Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask your forgiveness and to seek your direction and guidance. We know Your Word says, 'Woe to those who call evil good,' but that is exactly what we have done. We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values. We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery. We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare. We have killed our unborn and called it choice. We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable. We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self esteem. We have abused power and called it politics. We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition. We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of expression. We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment. Search us, Oh God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from every sin and Set us free. Amen!'

{Vision of Glory Confirmation}

Every year I get to photograph the kids at VOG getting confirmed. This is the church I was confirmed at so it always brings back all those happy memories from youth group. This church will always have a special place in my heart. It was a safe place for me to grow and really learn about what it means to walk with Jesus. Thanks for all the memories and blessings to everyone that got confirmed.

{Buddhist ceremony}

Ohnmar and Steve celebrated their marriage twice. This is their Buddhist ceremony at Ohnmar's sister's house. I enjoyed see their heritage and the clothes they wore. I am always so intrigued by the so many different ways people live and celebrate. Thank you for letting me come and also for sharing your food with me.You are never to old for a hug from dad.

{David and Benny}

Another really great event but Give My Regards To. The twin boys had their b'nia mitzvah party in Minneapolis. The adults danced and the kids played video games. It was a fun event!
