New Game

Hey, everybody!

We have started a new game. This one is called 'Map.' Map is one of our family's favorite games while on outings. You all know this one- it is where you keep a list of all the states that you see license plates for.

The twist on the game is that we have bought a map of the US and are putting stickers on all the states that have people in them praying for Mom.

SO- what we need is for someone from each state or who has family in a state to post HERE and let us know your state. We are suspicious that we will be able to fill the map. Help us try-

with love from the 'Shellener Team'-

ps. we are taking countries too!

Prayers from Arizona. I'm working in Kentucky so I guess that counts.

tonight was the ash wednesday service at first pres. although it's usually a hard service to make it through emotionally every year, tonight was especially hard. i sang with the adults tonight, and we sang "a prayer for humility". the closing hymn was "abide with me", and doug murray played variations on it for the closing voluntary. usually a lot of the adults leave during the closing voluntary, but everyone stayed tonight... it was a very quiet, somber service, and i wasn't the only one who cried for your mom, jacqui. there were others who did too, and the congregation prayed for her tonight after the dinner anouncements. she is in the thoughts and prayers of everyone who knows her at first pres... she and mr. schneller still remain a vital piece of our church, and always will be loved and welcomed there.

love and prayers from me and the people at first pres-

I don't want to repeat anything already said, but do know that there are several people saying prayers around the country. However, my sister is currently in New Zealand and praying.

Well, it seems that Massachusetts is already covered, but I suppose I shouldn't let that stop me :)... in any event, you have my full support.

I know it's been mentioned already, but know that more prayers are coming from Indianapolis, IN. Y'all may need a few more sleeves of stickers when all is said and done!

Choir love,

you've got all the states i have to offer, but i can add my family in quezon city, the philippines, a friend in caracas, venezuela, and two friends in leningrad (somehow i can NOT call it st. petersburg, it was leningrad when i worked there and that is how it is in my mind).

post a picture of your map sometime so we can all admire!

and please--if you have any information--let us know what the legal situation is regarding the driver. was this a hit-and-run? what charges are pending? what legal assistance might pam and roland need?

My parents and grandparents are praying in Connecticut, as are the members of their various prayer groups, church groups, and choirs!
