A few more YSP prayer pics

Hi all, Orin here. I survived! Whee. It was a great week all around. Here are a few more pics of prayer, swiped from participant Jarrod’s facebook profile.  I know they may not mean so much out of context, but trust me, all these moments were prayerful and pretty darn cool. The cross, toward the…

Go Cards!

For those of you who care about baseball, you might have noticed that the St. Louis Cardinals, the bestest team in the whole wide world, is currently locked in a tight pennant race with the Chicago Cubs.  I realize it’s still early in the season, but there really isn’t a bad time to rally support…

"Daddy…Will You Be At My Wedding?"

This past Saturday, the Cerneka family attended the wedding of friends, Kim Gross and Josh Pierce. Since Erin and Shannon were singing, they were invited to the rehearsal on Friday night. At some point in the rehearsal, the bride-to-be was nice enough to give the increasingly-restless Madeleine a small veil and bouquet of flowers to…
