Faithful Navigator’s Message

Brothers,

As I watch the snow and rain turn the world into a large skating rink outside, I find it hard to believe that it’s the middle of April already. It’s been a strange winter, indeed.

We hope that everyone had a wonderful Easter holiday. Jean and I had a great time at the Communion Breakfast on April 4th. Thanks again to Dave Franks for organizing that event.

We hope to see everyone out for our April Dinner Meeting on the 25th.

Vivat,

SK Jeff Smith
