a strong church body

taken yesterday evening in a vacant apple orchard

For years Jon has read the Bible to the kids before bed. It's a bedtime ritual that has spawned many conversations. The kids are now 15 and 11. I'm so grateful that he does this with them.

Tonight he was reading 1 Corinthians 12 and this part stuck out to us both:
"...there should be no division in the body, but that its parts should have equal concern for each other. If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it." ~ 1 Corinthians 12:25,26
It's a reminder that the strength and well-being of each member of the body is essential to it's functioning well.
