The Altenburgh Christmas Shows
My lack of enthusiasm for the Christmas music is pretty well documented. I am fan of this night though, not for the music really, but because some of the cats on stage are people I call friend, and watching them play together makes me laugh with a joy of watching someone you care for, do something they love.
Plus, watching Greiner scowl, that’s fun.
Holiday Season Straight Ahead!
Today is the 311th day of 2007, with just 54 days remaining in the year - and only 48 shopping days until Christmas. Christmas? When did THAT start showing up on my radar?
My neighbors across the street spent last weekend stringing lights, and my mailbox is filled with holiday catalogs. There’s no denying it - the holiday season has just about arrived.
Giving Back
You may be wondering, “who is this Kevin” and other such thoughts, so I guess I’ll tell you even if it does ruin the sort of mystery that life tends to thrive on. I’m a resident of Wausau (which I sometimes like to call waubitysaubity for no real reason). I have lived here for just about two years and absolutely love this town. I pastor a small church as well as doing a very tiny bit of contract computer programming. My contributions will primarily focus on issues of faith and social justice, but I might also talk about fishing or the weather or really anything else that I decide I just need to talk about.
One of the things that make life good, and enriches our soul is to do good things for other people. Just think about how much your heart goes “pitter-patter” with joy each time a loved one opens a gift from you. So in the interest of making life good I wanted to bring your attention to two fabulous opportunities to actually make a difference to the lives of actual living people here in Wausau. Your heart might even pitter a little patter.
