Pow Wow and Family/Borders

Every year becomes more fun at the Pow Wow because we know more people.  Many of our new friends from the Senior Center were there as well as family members.  My cousin, Nancy Morris, introduced us to her children and grandchildren.  George and Pat Godfrey brought their granddaughter with them from Springfield, Illinois.  They all stayed with Mom.  Once again, George danced and won 3rd place.  The prize was $300.  One of the judges was my doctor, Ron Shaw.  He was recently elected as a councilman for the Osage Indian Tribe in Tulsa. 

Galen's daughter, Crystal and her family arrived on Monday evening.  They have just moved here from So. California.  She is a nurse, and her husband is a computer IT man.

Last Sunday morning, I attended Galen's Cowboy Church while Bill went on the Potawatomi Sacred Heart Tour.  They went to Asher to see the former boarding school that my grandfather attended through 6th grade.  I'm sure my grandfather must have been baptized by the priests, but he was later immersed as an adult with my grandmother in the Baptist church.

On Sunday evening, Bill and I were asked to play trumpet/piano for a concert at Blackburn Chapel.  It is a beautiful church!  Our former pastor, Larry Sparks asked us to come back this next Sunday and lead all of the music.  Bill agreed to do so.  The church runs about 140 people.

Yesterday, I went to the clinic for a check-up.  I ended up getting an x-ray on my foot and a lab test.  My foot was swelling, but I had no injury.  Going to the doctor is always an inconvenience for me, but I really enjoyed Dr. Baughman.  She has been to North Africa several times for mission trips and has adopted a 7 year old boy from there.  Bill and I hope to go there next year to visit Keri and Kevin and the kids.  The doctor was so excited to meet someone who had knowledge of Africa.  We will get together sometime outside of the clinic.

Poor Obama has so many troubles.  Of course, every one of his problems are former Pres. Bush's fault.  This week I was listening the Kelly File on Fox and her interview with Bill Ayers.  His world view is so much like Obama's.  He doesn't believe in borders or law.  I was reminded that when the 666 rules the world, the Bible says that there will be no borders or nations.  One man will rule a totalitarian empire.    That cannot happen until America is torn down.  Having visited several countries that are socialistic, I can see where we are headed.  The worst was East Germany.  Every one had a tiny car that looked the same.  People were standing in lines with their tickets to purchase bread until it ran out the day we were there.  Music and creativity was erased.  God was taken out of the society and their souls were hidden.  I felt that I had tasted hell!  People without God have no hope and are on their own.  So sad!  I pray that Obama will turn to God for help and quit going it alone.
