Reaching out from Grand Lake Community Chapel

Wednesday, August 20, 2025
Greetings in Christ!
This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it! Let us rejoice in the overnight rain, that gently soaked the parched ground, and let us be glad for rejuvenated flowers and lawns!
We’ll be taking our daughter, Justice, to Louisville, KY, so that she can begin her studies at the Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary soon. We covet your prayers for safe travel!
While our trip will be something of a whirlwind, oddly enough the preparations aren’t a whole lot different than if we were going to be away for a week or more; we still need to select clothes, make sure our various medications are packed, and take care of whatever “business” might come up while we’re traveling. If you think about it, it’s not a whole lot different than how we should prepare for each new day as children of God and followers of Jesus Christ. We need to put on the “whole armor of God” so that we’re properly dressed for the day, we need to practice healthy self-care by eating properly and taking our prescribed medications, and we need to take care of whatever business the day presents – work, chores, social obligations, and of course, prayer time. Whether we’re just hangin’ around home, heading out for a brief overnight getaway, or leaving on a long trip, the process of getting ready doesn’t really change; every day should start with prayer, proper attire, and proper nutrition!
Blessings,
Karen and Greg
