Get Faith
Galatians chapter 3  "....For in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith."  The lucky ones are the children born into Christian families and are raised in the church for the knowledge and fellowship of other Christians.  Luckier yet is the person that is brought to Christ by one of those children.  If you have a gift then you share it.


On this day
2011   It was a Sunday and after church we had the yearly picnic at the Grosse Pointe park and pool for the kids.  Mom and I took Rose with us.  She was fighting cancer and still trying to have a normal life.  She enjoyed the picnic although it was really hot, but the food was so good!!  After the picnic Mom and I went out to New Baltimore to see Lindsey and Scott's new home and pool.  I even went down the slide and did a cannon ball into the pool as Scott ordered.  Nice summer memory.  Do you have a pool?  It will come in handy the next few days!

Politics

Malacañang Palace is the official residence of the President of the Philippines.
The Philippines has a democratic government in the form of a constitutional republic with a presidential system.[299] It is governed as a unitary state with the exception of the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM), which is largely free from the national government. There have been attempts to change the government to a federalunicameral, or parliamentary government since the Ramos administration.[300][301]
The President functions as both head of state and head of government and is the commander-in-chief of the armed forces. The president is elected by popular vote for a single six-year term, during which he or she appoints and presides over the cabinet.[302] The bicameral Congress is composed of the Senate, serving as the upper house, with members elected to a six-year term, and the House of Representatives, serving as the lower house, with members elected to a three-year term.[302]
Senators are elected at large while the representatives are elected from both legislative districts and through sectoral representation.[302] The judicialpower is vested in the Supreme Court, composed of a Chief Justice as its presiding officer and fourteen associate justices, all of whom are appointed by the President from nominations submitted by the Judicial and Bar Council.[302]

Enjoy the day!  Make it memorable! Happy Birthday Dan!!!
