Dear Mom and Dad: I imagine you are wondering already where I got this exta thin paper. Well it’s wrting paper that the Japanese use. The envelope is the kind of envelope they use too. After you finish reading this, have Genevieve take it to school and show Miss Fultz and the rest of the faculty who are interested in such things. It’s never warm enough to go outside without your coats on, and there is snow on the ground practically all the time. In the summer you can easily get a sunburn but you still have to wear your coat. We live in a tent which is boarded up on all four sides. There is no window in the tent but we have electric lights. We have a little coal stove in the middle of the tent which furnishes plenty of heat. The dance band I’m in plays at different places all over the island once a night and sometimes twice a night. Besides playing in the band, we all are on a working party every morning. There is a show on every night at the theatre but they are all the shows which we have seen in the states; although its something to pass the time away.

Alice Payne Hackett credits McCutcheon with fifth place among the authors who had the most titles on her sixty annual lists of best sellers from 1895-1955.

Miss Tempe sat down in her rocking chair with a keen sense of relief. She sat there with her hands lying supinely upon her lap just as she had dropped them. The rioting flames of the resinous pine revealed the gray-streaked hair, drawn away tightly from the thin temples, the high Roman nose, the pale straight lips. She thought of Emma, the child whom she had taken from her dying sister, whom she had brought up to work because of necessity. She had to-day taken the vows of matrimony, and with Miss Tempe’s blessings had departed for her home out West. She felt lonely. Just then a sudden gust shook the loose sash.

The goal? To help you lead like never before, in your church or in your business. And now, your host, Carey Nieuwhof. Carey Nieuwhof: Well hey everybody, and welcome to episode 380 of the podcast. My name is Carey Nieuwhof, and I hope our time together today helps you lead like never before. Man, it's been so good to hang with you in the middle of, well, what has been the most insane year that I have ever lived through. And yeah, I love doing this with you. Today, I've got Beth Moore on the podcast. This is really exciting. Found out a couple of years ago, she's a listener to the podcast. It's so amazing to see who listens and subscribes. And ran into her in the green room at an event we were doing in LA, and I said, "I'd love for you to come on the podcast." So a little bit later, fast forward to today, and we've got her, and I'll tell you it is a fascinating conversation. And if you wonder how to navigate the online world, I promise you, probably it's not as complicated as it is if you were Beth Moore. Carey Nieuwhof: So we go there, and we talk all about that and how she handles her critics and all that stuff. And I know a lot of you are navigating that right now.

  • Everything Worth Doing a Sermon by the Rev. Angela Herrera First
    Everything Worth Doing A Sermon by the Rev. Angela Herrera First Unitarian Church May 7, 2017 What a week! Thirteen candidating events involving 175 people. I have met with our branch congregations, financial teams, long time members, Standing Committees, justice groups, families, new members, Sunday volunteers, young adults, the whole staff, and one pensive two year old who came by to visit me during open office hours. We read a story about Thomas the Tank Engine. It has been a week of rich conversations. I am touched by your passion for this place and your commitment to it. I am humbled by the wisdom and experience you bring to it. I love hearing your hopes and dreams. I love to think seriously with you, and to laugh with you. Over 400 of you also participated in the Search Committee’s survey about what you seek in your next Senior Minister and what matters to you in this place. From that the Committee compiled a 105 page Congregational Record, which they shared with me and with you- you can find it on the church website. And the committee also shared with me 136 pages of your anonymous answers to open ended questions. Now I’m here to tell you what the search committee and I have heard you say, and about my hopes and vision for us. Let’s see, 400 survey respondents, 175 conversations, and I have.... 20 minutes. So... no problem. (ha ha). As long as we all agree that this is a twenty minute sermon about beautiful things that we will experience and do together, hopefully for the next twenty years.

  • Priorities #4
    Perfect Faith # 3 ‘Faith in Balance’ Bro. Lee Vayle - August 16, 1987 Heavenly Father, again we want to thank You for this special opportunity You’ve given us again to meet on this first day of the week, commemorating Your resurrection. We know that You are alive, that You have risen from the dead and seen in this last day and hour, the absolute proof of it, as far as we’re concerned, and to understand by Your Word Lord, that You’ve now done the same things by Your blessed Holy Spirit, that You did when You were here in the form of human flesh. Help us to recognize that, to understand it Lord, to know what the import, the impact is upon our lives, and help us Lord, to understand what You’ve done for us this day. And may we by it Lord, grow in grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, to serve Thee acceptably, and be ready Lord, for the day which You have proclaimed ‘the great day of the Lord, of a judgment and a victory Lord, when You will take away a people Lord, unto Yourself, that You will bring back a people upon this earth immortal Lord, to serve You under the ideal conditions that You set forth in the Millennium, Father, when every man will be under his own vine or fig tree, everyone, Lord, in peace with the King and Prince of Peace here in our midst, governing and ruling from sea to sea Lord. And we just thank You for that promise we have.
