Sister Joan Chittister famously said, "We are each called to go through life reclaiming the planet an inch at a time until the Garden of Eden grows green again." Reflecting on that journey -- a blog at a time -- is the focus of this site.

No, we haven't heard anything yet ...
... thanks to everyone for the prayers and emails.
NYTimes Reports: 14 U.S. Soldiers Dead in Copter Crash in Iraq
It was the first thing I heard when I turned on the radio this moring, and I've been thinking about you, Jamie, and your family all day. Keeping you all in prayer.
Likewise, my first thoughts were of you and Jamie and your family. Amazing how close the internet brings people who have never met. Prayers ascending even more frequently.
Susan, I thought of you and your son when I heard this news at 6AM on the way to church. Your son and you and all the families of our military were in our prayers this morning and will continue to be so. God bless you all.
You and Jamie were the first people I thought of this morning when I heard the news. I pray for you Jamie that the God of all mercies will hold you tightly.

Keeping Jamie, you and your family in my prayers. It was the first thing I thought of when the story appeared this morning.

ReplyDeleteJust yesterday I added Jamie to a new page on dailyoffice.org, My Prayer List.
ReplyDelete"Prayers ascending," a phrase I learned from you.

ReplyDeletePrayers are ascending for Jamie's safety, health, and life.
ReplyDeleteWe were hoping to see you at the dog park this morning as we had heard this news right before leaving. We are keeping you all in our prayers.

Like everyone in what has become your cyber-community I immediately thought of you when I heard this. And like them began praying.
