Phather Phil’s Prayer
Heavenly Father, to be a good driver we must watch our speed and keep an assured clear distance. The same applies to our speed thru life. We are all going somewhere, slow down and enjoy the view and it will also provide you with the assured clear distance to make the right decisions. Your good book provides us with all the rules for a happy life. Help us
focus on them in our travel thru life. The decisions we make are all up to us and sooner or later those decisions will determine if we are put in the Smoking or non smoking sections. Amen!

Today’s Speaker
Bryn Mooth spoke about the joys and benefits of eating locally and seasonally. Bryn is journalist who writes about food and wellness. She extolled the virtues of Cincinnati’s Findlay Market (in the Over the Rhine neighborhood) and is author of Findlay Market Cookbook. Findlay Market is the oldest in Ohio and Ohio ranks #5 in farmers markets in the USA. She explained that eating seasonally means consuming asparagus and strawberries in spring, tomatoes, corn and zucchini in summer and squash and apples in fall. She quoted Mark Bitman saying if you want to make a difference in health, community, connection, use locally sourced markets. She gave everyone a copy of Edible Ohio Valley.
