We Meet Wednesday, October 10

Our cluster meets Wednesday, October 10 at 12 Noon, Fashion Faire Food Court.

We will be seated in the walkway behind the coffee area.

Look for a guy that looks like this:

... and you will be in the right place.

On a personal note, prayers are appreciated for my (Tom Sims') family as we are dealing with issues of our grandchildren being removed from their mothers' home and, consequently, from us for the time being. CPS is trying to fast track the approval process for them to be placed with us in foster care since there is no clear, legally established relationship. One of the boys is our grandson through our son, but he was in the process of trying to prove parentage when this happened. The other is simply our grandson through love and mutual choice. We have been raising them half of the week for quite a while and are very anxious about their well being. The good part is that they have been removed from a dangerous environment and a young couple is being compelled to get some help that they really need. There is also a little baby girl involved who is only a few weeks old with whom we have no real relationship, b ut much concern. Her name is Adriana and she needs our prayers along with Kaibian and Elijah.
