BETTER THAN SNAKES

I received a cold shudder from several of you who aren't especially fond of snakes. So this post will turn to much more pleasant subjects.

Karol and I celebrate when God leads people into full-time church work. Last week, we drove to Oconto Falls to attend the evening ordination service for Sherry (Van Donsel) Van Lishout. Sherry was a faithful attendee at Peace (especially her serving as one of the international student ministry peer ministers) and graduated from UWSP about 2005.

Sherry was ordained in her home congregation and has been called to serve a pastorate in Iowa.

Sherry has not lost any of her joy and warmth. I'm sure that she will make a fine pastor. 
Over the past several weeks, Karol and I added a sitting area on the southeast corner of the house. When the colder temps come, this area should stay just a bit warmer.
Karol and I visited Nathan and Holly (Luke and Megan) in Sturgeon Bay on Sunday and Monday. On Monday morning, Nathan took us to Potawatomi State Park in Door County near Sturgeon Bay. We discovered a wonderful underused park. Enjoy the following pictures. The tower had 100 steps. You'd have to know that I was a little fearful of the climb up.
