Paul Jasa gave us two different presentations.  His first presentation was about Meals for Nurses. He started out telling us about his neighbor who is a nurse at CHI St Elizabeth and how he felt like doing something for that family on December 20^th.  He loves to cook and so he fixed a brisket and crockpot of bean soup.  He knew he had more than enough, so he took some over to his neighbor who had been working long hours at the hospital because of COVID-19.  She appreciated it very much and told him that it happened to be their wedding anniversary and with restaurants closed down or limited service that was a great meal to have and she greatly appreciated it. 

 

This started Paul thinking about the other nurses that worked with her neighbor and how they might enjoy a meal.  So, he starts working on those meals over the weekend and his neighbor takes them to the hospital on Monday to share with 4 or 6 people.  They have enjoyed a variety of different meals.

Many years ago Carol and I were invited to go to Rome to attend an international religious liberty conference.  In Rome were impressed with the number of statues that seemed to be everywhere.  In ancient Rome being a sculptor was a popular job.  If your home didn’t have at least one statue of the Gods you were not considered in the main stream. 

No birthdays this week.
