This was a special day. Grace Lutheran Church held a farewell for me, and it was beautiful. The Fellowship Hall was decorated with love, a spread of cookies, cakes and fruit, and each table was centered with a pile of Almond Joy candy-bars to send me off with JOY! I...

It is Maundy Thursday. Jesus shares his last supper with his disciples before he is betrayed by one of them, arrested, and executed. Luke’s version of the story is found in Luke 22:1-27. I find it fascinating how clueless the disciples are, even at this moment....
