Phather Phil’s Prayer
Heavenly Father soon we will share the joy of food, fellowship and faith in celebrating Christmas. You have blessed us with the happy spirit of Optimism. Help us pass on that spirit by letting younger generation know, OH so many things, like love, respect, honesty and generosity. Help us educate them to be happy so when they grow up they will know the value of things, not the price. Most of all, impart to them that the nicest place to be is in someone’s thoughts, the safest place to be is in someone’s prayers and the very best place to be is in the hands of God. Amen!

Today’s Speaker
Scott Langer introduced Jim Bucher, a most entertaining speaker. He spent 30 years with Channel 2, leaving there nearly 5 years ago. He humorously described the depression that followed. Soon he became spokesperson for Irwin Chrysler, and a new career in social media was launched. He makes videos for businesses, helping get the word out also through infomercials. His web site is BucherTVguy.com. He said his main message is to follow your passion. He was roundly applauded.
