this morning we got up and went to the gulf club for a breakfast buffet, then headed to church,
the chaplain came here a year ago on the 4th of july, and has one more year here… after church we talked and when i asked him where he was from he said columbia and added i have nothing to do with drugs!…. he studied at the seminary and became a catholic priest, then changed to episcopal and got married, and then enlisted and is now a chaplain…
the sermon text, gospel was from matthew … come to me all who are weary and heavy laden and i will give you rest……….. is that what the lessons were in the states anybody??? i guess i have to wait til sunday for you:)
here he is preparing communion……….

poor james, he is working on the car at camp, on the way to church something made a not good noise…a belt broke on the car, so the chaplain gave shel, me and eliza a ride home:) he just finished working all day on the day of the parade on the air conditioning!
blessings on your day
