This little girl named Jessica needs a liver transplant. Knowledge Box Central is holding a benefit where you [...]

My husband has been looking for a job for over two years. That’s a long time! He had a number of interviews, even some second interviews, but none of them panned out. Many potential employers were in Pittsburgh, meaning he would have to drive 40 miles or more (much more in some cases!). It has [...]

Today (October 10) is my wedding anniversary. My husband and I have been married for nine years, and we have two beautiful children.

Let’s take a detour from my recent posts about our wonderful pilgrimage walk/spiritual journey and return to a topic I touched on a few weeks ago: Health, exercise, weight, eating habits — and, in particular, the legacy we are leaving our children (http://chrisdowns.wordpress.com/2007/08/19/helping-our-children-make-better-food-and-lifestyle-choices/).
Unfortunately, many American children today (and, even just Americans, children or adult) have [...]

Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God, have mercy on me, a sinner.
We prayed these words as we walked with Pilgrim George — occasionally out loud, but also in our heads (at least I did, and I know Bunny did when we weren’t talking because we discussed it a little). It was the only [...]
What Did You Give Up To Be Here Today? (What Did I Gain?)

“What did you give up to be here today?” That’s the question Pilgrim George asked me when it was my turn to walk alongside him (since you could not walk more than two across, sometimes only one, along the highway).
My answer to him:
Hours of paid work — which is particularly meaningful right now, with our [...]

Last week, I went to the American Idol concert with my daughter, my Mom, and my Dad (it was my parents’ birthday gift to my daughter). As I was getting ready to leave, part of me wondered – for just a moment – if I had time to take hours out of my day to [...]
