  Softball season has begun and summer camps will be here soon!  Watch for details on how you can become involved.

My Blog!

 

The other day I was in a discussion and someone asked me the question, "How do you handle frustration?"  I wanted say, "I don't get frustrated," but that would not have been the truth.

Frustration is a part of life, whether you are a parent with challenging kids, a teacher in public schools with class sizes that are too large, an administrator waiting for payments from the state, or a patriotic citizen wondering what happened to honest politicians.

As I thought about how I handle frustration I was reminded of the bible verses I memorized long ago which say,

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.  And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus."

It almost sounds too good to be true.  All I have to do is 1) not be anxious, 2) tell God my requests, and 3) receive His peace!

I can tell you from personal experience it really works.  If you are carrying frustration today, try God's plan for dealing with it - you might just keep some of your hair in place!

Quincy Kroc Center Construction

UPDATE

The outside framework of the Quincy Kroc Center is now almost 50% complete.  Steel and concrete are coming together as more than 40 construction workers are on the site every day.  Plumbers, electricians and masons are all working side by side as directed by construction managing firm S. M. Wilson.

The entire Quincy community is watching with excitement as the building takes shape.  The nearly 100,000 sq. ft. facility is scheduled to open in June 2011.

Thank you for your continued prayers as the Kroc Center construction provides many jobs and brings hope in difficult times!
