Week 23: All things NEW at Florence

Monday -- Baby Lichti, John Floyd, is born! Welcome to the world.

Wednesday -- Met the new lambs and bunnies at the Ewert Farm on Bair Lane.

Two lambs were born by emergency C-section at the hands of Josh and Randy when the mother ewe was perishing. The third was saved by emergency stomach puncture when dying of bloat from too much fresh green grass.

Death and birth. Easter season. Rural drama.

Friday -- Tiny baby squirrel found in the hosta bed at our home.

Saturday -- Constructing the birthing tub for Drew and Caitlin, one month away from due date of our first grandchild.

Sunday -- In a ritual of re-entry, I am blessed as the new pastor of Florence, lambs and all, once more.

"New earth, heavens new, Spirit of God moving..."
