Good and Evil Face Off in Woodstock

A small portion of the Patriots in Woodstock
rallying for Charlie Kirk.
Larry and I returned today from a two day stay in Staunton. It was not a planned vacation. We had tickets for a conference on regenerative farming being hosted by the Brownstone Institute. When they sent an email saying they had a long waiting list for the event, we decided younger folks would benefit more than we would. So we gave up our tickets. But I had booked a hotel reservation already paid for that couldn't be canceled. So instead of the conference we decided to take a mini vacation in Staunton. We planned a late lunch in Salem on Thursday with our five grandkids who attend Virginia Tech followed by two nights in Staunton doing a little exploring of the area. 

At the hotel, we watched a lot of the coverage on Charlie Kirk and marveled at the statement from his wife, Erika. What a testimony of faith and love! No hate, no unbridled anger, just determination to carry on Charlie's goal of "making heaven crowded."

Public Witness to Christ in Woodstock - The Corpus Christi Procession


St. John Bosco in Woodstock, VA has a large Hispanic community. Some of their customs are absolutely beautiful and enrich the parish and the town. This Corpus Christi procession is one of them. The artistic work that goes into this project illustrates the respect and love they have for Jesus. And it offers and opportunity for the Hispanic and non-Hispanic members of the parish to work together to glorify God.
