Family time

We realized that our family has only gathered for holidays since our parents died 15 years ago.  Often those times were only for a few hours.  So we decided to spend four days together away from work and our homes.  I wondered how we would manage.  As our time ends I have found that we are still different, that we can be together, and that the connection is still strong.  This morning we celebrated the Eucharist and we were able to come together in faith.  So I share several pictures.  The first one is of the 5 Kunz children in order of age--Jim, John, Barb, Earl and Richard.  The second picture adds the partners--Barb and Don, Earl and Sylvia, Richard and Julie.  It is great to have this connection during my sabbatical.  Please keep us in prayer.
