"Dear Southtown:
I just wanted to tell you again that the new devotional is
wonderful. I read the whole thing in two days. God is using your
honesty (oops, I think the postmodern word is "authenticity") and
vulnerability to reach those who read it. The book is an
encouragement to me; sometimes after working all day with teenagers
and young adults who are so messed up, I need to be reminded that
God has, and is, working in young people's lives. At the Crisis
Pregnancy Center, we have such a limited amount of time with
clients. God gives us the privilege of planting seeds, but only
occasionally do we get to see the fruit. Through you all, God has
allowed Russell and I to see through a longer lens and God nurturing
the seeds that others have planted in your lives. For this reason,
"We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
praying always for you, since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus
and of your love for all the saints; because of the hope which is
laid up for you in heaven, of which you heard before in the word of
the truth of the gospel, which has come to you, as it has also in
all the world, and is bringing forth fruit, as it is also among you
since the day you heard and knew the grace of God in truth"
Colossians 1:3-6

 P.S.
Danny and David, I am a proud Mom just like your Mom, so I attached
a picture of Sam dressed for the other sport in his life.
