Good morning on this the last day of May. Many of you have inquired about my time with my new grandson, Kai, during the Memorial Day holiday. We were at the airport in Chicago when my daughter arrived with Kai about 6:00 P.M. on Thursday evening. Barb and I had the opportunity to spend the next several days with him and his new forever family during the next several days. It was wonderful to get acquainted with him and have the opportunity to provide our daughter with some much-needed assistance as she struggled with jet lag and the fatigue of her long journey. Lori and her family joined us later in the weekend and with Tim now living in Lake in the Hills, our whole family was together for the occasion. We all had a great time and I returned home on Monday afternoon with an overwhelming sense of gratitude for the privilege of being part of a loving caring family with three great children and five terrific grandchildren.
Cheryl tells me that she will posting pictures of Kai's arrival home on her adoption website http://www.myadoptionwebsite.com/kai/ later this weekend. Thank you for your prayers and concern as you have followed with us Kai's journey into our lives and family.
Tomorrow's message will be the first in a series of prophecy updates given throughout the month of June. The focus will be on current world events which could play a major role in the fulfillment of Biblical prophecies. During these critical times, it is a profitable to keep one eye on prophecy and the other on current events as we advance ever nearer to the coming of Christ.
I hope to see you all in the services tomorrow.
Pastor Mel Brown
