 Our great grandson, age three months and a couple weeks, came to visit us from Indiana on my birthday. Thomas was born with health issues that would not permit him to live more than a day or so, if not for modern technology. Seeing something new, his parents took him to our hospital, which sent him to a children's hospital more than an hour's drive from here. He has "double pneumonia." And today, his father has to fly home for something special at his work. Thanks for praying for Thomas. 


        Meanwhile, an introduction by Jewish rabbi Saul, who God changed to Paul, to his letter to the Galatians: 

     Paul, an apostle - sent not from men nor by man, but by Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead - and all the brothers with me.

     To the churches in Galatia: Grace and peace to you from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who gave himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
