Something people should know about me is that I am NOT a morning person. I run purely on "autopilot" until after I've had my first cup of coffee... So sometimes I forget items if they are not where I am used to finding them. Such was the case this morning as I left behind my recording device. So, I am sorry to say, you will just have to read my sermon this week. In the sermon I mention an article that was written about me and one of the things I do in my vocation.  You can find the article by clicking HERE .

Amen. By now most of you have seen the article either on line or in hard copy. Yes that’s me on the cover of the Chronicle Herald with a cup of my favourite non-alcohol...
