A quick note

I would like to express my apologies for the rather thin posting of late. I have been extremely consumed with a number of things in my life. Work has been busier than expected and I am out of town until next week on what was supposed to be a vacation. My internet will be quite limited during this period.

Vacation sadly this has not been much of. A serious family crisis has struck. My step father appears to be entering the later stages of senile dementia. We have long suspected Alzheimer’s disease although he has resisted testing until now. Obviously this is creating all kinds of stresses and problems. Anyone who has ever been through a loved one’s decline from this disease knows what a nightmare it is, especially in the later stages. Prayers for Harold and those who love him in this very difficult time are coveted and deeply appreciated.

Finally I want to apologize for the wave of spam comments posted in the last few days on AO. I have once again returned to moderating posts. I will not have the time to go through and delete all of the bogus comments until I get back next week sometime. If you post a comment it may not appear for a couple of days. So please bear with me. Thanking you all for your prayers, I remain

Yours in Christ,
John

Sorry to hear about your dad, John! Please know that you all are kept in prayer.

So, WHERE are you? Aren't in buried in the snow in upstate NY right now?

In Christ,
Father David
