We were blessed and bolstered, encouraged and edified, by Brother Anton Armbruster at our gathering on Sunday. His insights, wisdom, and humor knit us all closer to one another and to the Lord. Here is his message as a PodCast:
Discovering Anglicanism
Freedom and Formation: A Scriptural Theology of Eucharistic Blessings
Ed and Suzy Speare of Virginia write, “We brought another long-hair female dachshund into the family to be a buddy for Stella who came to us in July. We got Claire in September from a different breeder in another state than Stella, but they are the same kind of dog and get along famously. The play together, chase around our front yard area, sleep at night in separate cages, but nap together as “bunk buddies” during the day. Stella is the more athletic of the two, and Claire is more cuddly and likes to be held. We are enjoying them immensely. I have put in a PayPal donation to ATLAS in Thanksgiving for Claire and am attaching a few pictures of both of them. Wishing you a blessed Advent and Merry Christmas.”
Ed and Suzy Speare of Virginia write, “We are once again a household with a dog. We brought Stella home on July 1, 2017, from Wilmington, NC. She is a miniature, long-hair female dachshund, Shaded Cream in color. She is a feisty little thing and is a change from our last dog, but we are adapting to each other as time goes on. In honor of her coming “home”, I am mailing a donation to Atlas in her name today. We are definitely using the pet prayer book with her!”
