These ones were born in Zion...

It's time to do the numbers. Lucas and Heather and Tenile report there are twenty-four children under a year and sixty who are five and under at ClearNote Church of Bloomington. Including the fifteen or so mothers carrying unborn Covenant children, that brings us to about seventy-five children five and under. How God has blessed us!

Cutting the grass today, I was listening to the Psalms and heard this:

The voice of the LORD makes the deer to calve And strips the forests bare; And in His temple everything says, “Glory!”  - Psalms 29:9

If you think it's weird to talk about children and births, read the Old Testament. I dare you.

I just shared this blog with my wife. Wonderful news!

Lou, I think it's time for a visit! Now, if the Lord will
Just provide the plane ticket . . .

Mutters at the stupid smart phone and it's auto-correct. Ooh, I meant ooh NOT Lou!

That is a true blessing! In my church (which is much smaller), we are also experiencing a "baby boom".

Glory!

We take Genesis 1:27-28 seriously at ClearNote Church.

Eleanor's fruit salad is still going strong, eh? :)

By my count Clear Note Indy has 9 children under five-years-old out of an entire congregation of about 30. That's nearly 1/3!

This is a good thing.

"These ones"....Please work on your English.

I figured it was giddiness from thinking of all those little people, and that it was only with great effort that he avoided saying "These ones *was* born in Zion". (Leastways, that woulda been my reason.)

In other words, sometimes when Tim gets blessed he goes gramattical. (It may not be much, but cut him some slack, he's Presbyterian and doing the best he can. :)

"One" is often pluralized--check out Matthew 18:6,10,14...

Love,
