| Zion, praise thy Saviour singing
hymns with exultation ringing,
praise thy King and Shepherd true.
Honor Christ, thy voice upraising,
who surpasseth all thy praising;
never canst thou reach his due.
Let the Bread, life-giving, living,
be our theme of glad thanksgiving,
now in truth before thee set;
As of old the Lord provided when
the Twelve, divinely guided, at
the holy table met.
What he did, at supper seated, Christ
ordained to be repeated, his
memorial ne'er to cease;
His command for guidance taking, bread
and wine we hallow, making thus
our Sacrifice of peace.
Full and clear sing out thy praising,
gracious hymns of joy upraising
in thy heart and soul today;
For today the new oblation of the
new King's revelation bids us
feast in glad array.
Very Bread, good Shepherd tend us,
Jesus of thy love befriend us,
Lord refresh us and defend us,
thine eternal goodness send us
in the land of life to see:
Thou, who all things canst and
knowest, who on earth such food
bestowest, grant us with thy
Saints, though lowest, where
the heavenly feast thou showest,
fellow-heirs and guests to be.
Amen. Alleluia.

In heavenly armor we'll enter the land
the battle belongs to the Lord
No weapons that are fashioned against us will stand
the battle belongs to the Lord
And we sing glory, honor, power and strength to the Lord
we sing glory, honor, power and strength to the Lord..

| I am amazed by your love
I am amazed by your mercy
That the God of forever
would share it together with me
I am amazed that you chose me
I am amazed that you show me
The love of the Father
taking me farther than anything I've ever seen
I am amazed.

| Last night while driving we saw a storefront named, "Casket Outlet."
It was advertised as if it were selling baby supplies. My sons thought
it was rather tasteless, but I explained to them that with the laws
that govern how we bury our dead it has created a money raping exercise
for those who are in the business of death. I then said, guys when I
die just do the cheapest even if it means cremate me. I don't care.
Just don't go into debt over your emotions [unless you can afford it
:-)] Matthew, my oldest and the deep thinker popped up and said,
"Couldn't we cremate you ourselves?"
Kerplunk my heart went, BWWaahahahaha my heart went! Son, I exclaimed
why and how do you think you could do that? He said something about
the indians did it. Anyway, it was funny. He was kidding.. but
that kid of mine, where did he get his sense of humor???

My mom and dad went from wanting to be buried to wanting to be
cremated. They changed their minds as we grew up, we stopped living near them.
Most of us don't live in the same state. They are afraid no one would come and
visit them. When they told me that it did bring a chuckle to me because now we
will get to fight over who gets the ashes! :-)
That same night they gave me something to sign. It was to be the person
who decides if the plug should be pulled or not if they are both
incompasitated. Not something I was thrilled about.

Glen, that is tough to be in that position for another human being,
especially a parent.
But have you checked what you signed? Perhaps you just donated your
inheritance to geriatric studies! :-)

That would be fine with me. I don't want the money/home/etc.

Yeah I know what you mean there. I was my father's only daughter, when
he passed away unexpectedly, I really, really, had wished there was
someone else to handle it all.

14.13 | some advice ... | YASHAR::RONNIEB | Debt Free! Thank You, Jesus! | Wed Jun 04 1997 15:14 | 15 |
| RE: .11 & .12, et.al.
My StepDad (a banker all of his working life) had a similar problem
when his mother named him Executor of her estate. After much time
and financial difficulty (and familial difficulties!) he was able
to probate her will and settle her estate. His advice to all who have
ears to hear:
"PLEASE, advise folks to use their local bank's Trust Department to be
executor of the estate, for a specific fee. The bank will have bonded
and licensed professionals who will gladly (and impartially!) help you."
I hthy,
Ron

Luckily I'm not the executor of the estate. They made my sister that as
I did not want the headache of dealing with splitting everything up. I have
seen and heard of cases where that is a worst experience than the actual death.

14.15 | | ORS1::JOHNSON_L | | Thu Jun 05 1997 13:44 | 15 |
| After my Mom died, my Dad went through the entire house with us and
gave just about everything away. It was painful because it represented
the breaking up of what had in a way always been home for us even
though we all had homes of our own by then. However, I have been incredibly
blessed with a family that cares much more for each other than we are
concerned for things so there were no disagreements, fights, jealousy,
or anything like that. My husband was amazed. What no one took was
given away to needy people at my parent's church or in town. So the
only part of my parents' estate that is left are monetary assets that are
to split evenly between my parents' four daughters. My Dad sold the
house, and after spending a month with us, left in his travel trailer.
I am happy to say that he has since remarried and is no longer the
lonely, wandering nomad he set off to be.

14.16 | Problems Accessing Christian | ORS1::JOHNSON_L | | Thu Jun 05 1997 13:51 | 10 |
| I have been having a horrible time getting into the notes file from my
normal account. The connection is incredibly slow and it disconnects
all the time. I can access the file from else where okay. I don't have any
problems with any other notes files from my normal account though. Any
body have any clues as to what is going on? I'd rather not have a
notebook in this account. My normal acocunt is on CPCOD which did
change network areas about 3 weeks ago. Has YUKON updated its network
address thing recently?

| Hi Leslie,
I forwarded your concern to Jimgle, and I think he did run a
"maintenance" if you will. You should have seen a better response
time. Jim Glenn is the system manager, but I don't know if he reads
here on any schedule. Try email to him.
Love in Him,
Nancy

14.18 | Final farewell | AUSS::BELL | Caritas Patiens est | Thu Jun 05 1997 20:37 | 21 |
| This is my final farewell to you all, it will disappear in 7 days, and
you can all forget me :-).
It has been good to watch this conference and learn from the notes
written here. Going to a local church, and other Christian activities
in Sydney, we tend to chose those which fit in with our own
interruptations of the Bible, here there is much more diversity, and
the ocassional herasy :-). It is easy to be too dogmatic, and also easy
to be too accepting of peoples views. But hold fast to the most
important things:
o Know God (not know about God)
o Believe that Jesus Christ died to save you from YOUR sins, and
returned from the dead.
o Love each other, with the love that only God can provide.
o Remember Faith.
Peter.

14.20 | until we meet again... | ICTHUS::YUILLE | He must increase - I must decrease | Fri Jun 06 1997 05:29 | 13 |
| Hi Peter!
There is no 'final farewell' for those who are one in the LORD. I'm
tempted also to say that while I might forget names, I never forget faces,
but I'll resist it ;-) It has been good to meet you here, for the time the
LORD has given us together; knowing that our salvation is won by the work
of the Lord Jesus Christ on the cross is a bond which nothing can sever.
May you know the LORD's richest blessing in all He is leading you into,
throughout your life.
in Jesus' love
Andrew
