Re: Switching denominations

Interesting to note- in this area we have several different congregations in the different denominations. We have the 'wealthier' episcopal church and the one where the less wealthy attend. The same is true for the Southern Baptist and United Methodists. We have PCA and Presbyterian USA and both see...

My kids are in their 40s and can't vote for any- they've done them all. :)

Re: Public libraries. 21st Century saloons?

Our local library has several branches. My oldest takes her son to the story hour- so far she has not found anything objectionable offered there for the young ones and none of her friends who are believers and care about these same issues.

Re: The 2024 Garden Thread!

I agree with Soloist- if they are in containers- plant them, put them out on warm sunny days and bring in at night or bring in if even a chance of frost. Our last frost date is May 10 and usually I put things in around mid April unless we are expecting a freeze and we keep our eyes pinned to the for...
