Dangers lie in wait for him on every side. —C.S.

He is well-taught who learns these two lessons. —John Newton It’s not about being perfect. We will always be on a journey of growing closer to God. —Tim Tebow September 2021 3 There is restoration on the other side of this. God wants to restore things in you, around you, and through you. ~Eric Samuel Timm By Ruth Gunderson Perspective & Pruning It was only one night. One-hundred and nine minutes, to be exact.

Granted, one night—one measly hour and 49 minutes—cannot make up for the pandemic-fueled losses of the last 19 months. But perhaps the gospel- centered, Word-driven message that night would remind them of the One who knew these months would come and promised to walk with them through the losses. And, even more, promised to use these losses to restore them to a right relationship with Him. at the 2015 FLY Convention reactions of the remnant of That one night was held July 7, in the middle of (Identity), brought his Israel as they celebrated the the previously planned 2021 FLY Convention—now characteristic humor and foundation of the new temple. postponed to 2023.

    Ignazio Ruvolo_7287 Sandy Margulies: I’m Sandy Margulies Justice with the First District Court of Appeal and I’m here today to conduct a legacy interview of Justice Ignacio also known as Nace Ruvolo who recently retired from the Court of Appeal. So, I’d like to start out and just briefly ask you some information about your background and family. So, why don’t we start out with something easy. Where were you born? Ignazio Ruvolo: All right. I was born in a town called Elizabeth, New Jersey. It was in Union County. It’s about 25 to 30 miles outside of New York City. Sandy Margulies: And why don’t you tell us a little bit about your parents? Ignazio Ruvolo: Okay. I came from a very blue-collar family. My father worked in an umbrella factory. He started as a Stock Person and he moved up to be the Foreman for the production of this factory before he retired. My mother raised four children, including myself and during that time, she would do piece work that my father would bring her home in her spare time. She would sew the tips on umbrellas back in those days. It wasn’t quite as automated as it is today, and she would get paid per umbrella for doing that. After we were old enough to take care of ourselves, she went and became a bookkeeper for A&P, which was a supermarket that’s on --. Sandy Margulies: Right. I remember A&P. Ignazio Ruvolo: On the East Coast. And she did very well.
