Title: Hello! New Old Guy Here. Post by: Chaplain Bob on February 02, 2006, 03:49:01 AM I am a former theatre owner/operator/law enforcement officer/radio announcer and retail manager. I am currently resident manager/chaplain (along with my wife of 36 years) of an adult care facility (it's been a busy life). We have five grown children (I have four from a previous marriage). I have had the privilege of pastoring several groups and currently do on-line counseling. I am hoping to one day establish a film ministry in the form of a cinema.
I am here to fellowship and help my brothers and sisters in Christ where needed. In His Service Bob Allen Title: Re: Hello! New Old Guy Here. Post by: sincereheart on February 02, 2006, 07:39:51 AM Hi and welcome! :)
That made me tired just reading it! ;) Sounds like you have been- and still are- a busy man! If you're looking for fellowship; you'll find it here! That includes everything from the insane to the serious! And there's always lots of prayer and advice needed! Title: Re: Hello! New Old Guy Here.

Post by: Allinall on February 02, 2006, 09:01:51 AM Whoawhoawhoawhoawhoa! You have 5 grown children...and you have 4 from a previous marriage? Are you saying you have 9 children? If so, you rock on Father's Day dude! :D
Anywho, I'm just kidding. Welcome to CU! We love our God, love sharing our God, love the fellowship we have with those who are claimed by and claim Him as God, and we LOVE to goof off! Occassionally. Rarely. Actually quite a bit. In fact, even our serious posts lean a little to the odd... Welcome Brother! I look forward to reading your insight. :) His, Kevin (a.k.a. Allinall) Title: Re: Hello! New Old Guy Here. Post by: nChrist on February 02, 2006, 01:21:50 PM Hello Chaplain Bob,
WELCOME! (http://www.sirinet.net/~blkidps/welcome.gif) It's great to have you with us. I look forward to reading your posts and having fellowship with you. Love In Christ, Tom Ephesians 2:19-22 NASB So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints, and are of God's household, having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus Himself being the corner stone, in whom the whole building, being fitted together, is growing into a holy temple in the Lord, in whom you also are being built together into a dwelling of God in the Spirit.

Not the same I know, but a loss just the same. Title: Re: Hello! New Old Guy Here. Post by: nChrist on February 04, 2006, 05:44:05 AM Thank you all for your warm welcome.

I will be praying for you. We really do have a variety of sweet Christians here of all ages. AND, God does allow us to have good fellowship here. It's actually amazing how good things can be when the focus and priority in common is JESUS as Lord and Saviour. Once we realize that we will spend eternity together with JESUS, our differences are put into the proper respective. Brother, I'm really looking forward to many conversations with you and enjoying fellowship. Love In Christ, Tom Philippians 4:4 NASB Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice!

Hey Sunset: Thanks for the greeting. I guess no parent expects to lose a child. But thank God for His tender care. I hope we DO become internet friend. Title: Re: Hello! New Old Guy Here. Post by: airIam2worship on February 13, 2006, 03:59:27 PM CB & Sunset, I'd like to welcome both of you to CU. I too lost a child, he was 4 days old. And less than 8 months ago my brother and his wife lost thier son. I can still see the pain and suffering they go through every day. It grieves me tremendously knowing that they are hurting so. I personally know that it feels like it is almost impossible to go on. But I also know that Jesus gives us grace and we are able to continue.
Title: Re: Hello! New Old Guy Here. Post by: nChrist on February 14, 2006, 10:24:38 AM Hello Sunset,
I see that you are new, so WELCOME! (http://www.sirinet.net/~blkidps/welcome.gif) I'm very happy that you've joined our on line Christian family. I hope that you enjoy it here. We enjoy praying for each other, and we will pray for you. I give thanks that JESUS is with us every step of the way. Love In Christ, Tom Psalms 36:7 NASB How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God! And the children of men take refuge in the shadow of Your wings. |
