I almost didn’t go to my Bible Guys class today as I wasn’t feeling my best. But that would have been a mistake. It is always worthwhile to hang out with my guys. And today was a special meeting with the two Vashon classes consolidated to hear our overall leader Art Kopicky who came in from the mainland.

He came on his own initiative to help us with our grief with David our departed member. It was totally necessary and welcomed in the vacuum that has been left by David’s exit. What came out of the confab to me was the need to intentionally fill that void. To do it in a manner that strengthens the group and it’s members and that more fully covers our needs in our time ahead.

Group dynamic stuff in action. I know that doesn’t concern all of you but it was a big deal with me lately and you might find yourself in a similar situation. Deaths change things and as we get older we are somehow more aware of this. We need to navigate through this without having it get us down.

Well, enough of that but we do know about going on. That is what we do, we go on, we find a way to go on. If there is no way we create a way. And if that doesn’t work we pretend that we are going on, trusting that God will fill in the blanks.

Yes, pilgrims go on loves, Felipé.
