My heartfelt thanks to Mt. Calvary AME for welcoming me for another celebration of faith – and even remembering me, and asking about this week’s drawing of their celebration. I am consistently the only person ever there who is not black, but no one has ever treated with anything less than sincere excitement to see me there.
(Here’s what I wrote, typed for anyone who may not favor my handwriting:)

I see JOY here in this congregation today
Laughter, song, & joy @ Mt. Calvary AME Church on September 19th, 2021 @ ~1000
“God is NOT making It up as He goes along”
“To every thing there is a season”
“Not all suffering is a result of sin. Bad Things HAPPEN to Good People”
“You can lose your Perspective on God [with the oscillating issues in your life]”
“God always save the best for last – You have not seen God’s best yet – Don’t you hear the bell goin’ off?”
