the funeral is today at my church at 2pm.
please pray for all who come - and those who decide not to.
the misadventures and wandering thoughts of a recovering evangelical
quote of the week:
I have reflected many times upon our rigid search. It has shown me that everything is illuminated in the light of the past. It is always along the side of us, on the inside, looking out. Like you say, inside out. Jonathan, in this way, I will always be along the side of your life. And you will always be along the side of mine.

- all i know right now is that i just spent the weekend running a benefit for invisible children then watched babel and -- kids shouldn't touch guns. kids should play and run and laugh and believe the sky is "sky blue" because it's God's favorite crayon. our world is ill. the castle (empire) must be stormed (subverted) - - and hopefully we can find joy in the storming.
what i"m doing this week:
- ash wednesday service
- lots and lots of school work (hopefully)

Becky - I understand you are a friend of my darling Annie. I wanted you to know that I am thinking of you and all that you and your community are going through with the loss of a loved one. Thank you for being do kind to my Annie. I miss her very much, but worry about her alot less knowing you are there with her. You are on our minds and in our hearts.

Becky - I am sorry for your loss...I know that this is a tough time, but because you are a girl of such faith and endurance I know that you will get through this with grace as you do all things! Know you are in my thoughts. Thank you also for taking such good care of my dearest friend, Annie. Because I love her so much I in turn love you as well for loving her! Make sense, yeah, I thought it would! :)
Hi Becky,
I got an email from Annie telling me about the tragedy in Seattle. I just wanted you to know I'm praying for you. I know God will use this situation to draw you closer to him, and others will be blessed by your willingness to help and support.

becky, it is 1:25 and i am praying for you right this minute. i pray for miracles of healing for all that attend chris's memorial service today. may you be a witness to that and may it truly restore your sorrowful heart with hope.
Becky:
I'm Annie'd dad, David. I hope to meet you soon when Melanie and I come to visit. Thank you for caring for Annie. As you probably know by now, she's covered with God's fingerprints. This makes her kind of easy to love, but a little dangerous! Knowing she has your concern is a blessing to me. We will pray for you and for those experiencing this tragic loss. In Him, David
Becky,
Such a tragedy in our fair city. It is awesome that you have an opportunity to directly care for people during this time. If welles and I can do anything to help you during this please let us know.
It's my sincerest prayer that God comforts you in your time of loss. I pray that He holds you close and shows you his awesome love. Take comfort in Him.
Hi Becky, I, too, am sorry for your loss! Surely, none of this makes any sense just now and it may never; however, His grace is sufficient for you and for those you love. His strength is made perfect in your weakness! Thanks for loving Annie and for being her friend! She is very precious to me! Take care of each other! Mac Goddard
i just want to let you know my thoughts are w/ you. my heart aches for you and those involved in this horrendous grieving. your words and honest struggle are so beautiful on your earlier post. i do not doubt god's presence for all of you in this time. god is there. god is there.
Hi Becky,
I got this email from Annie which is truly a spirit filled Christian whom I truly love....I am so sorry for your loss....I know that God is with you and he will carry you through this....."when you only see one set of footprints in the sand....this is when I carried you...I love this poem....he will be close with you in this hour of need.....Love ya, Pamela...
