Here is the little church of the Angle. It's very small and heated by woodstove. I would guess it holds 40 or 50 people maybe?? I understand it doesn't have the same speaker every week, so no specific pastor and no specific denomination. The piano player was gone the week we went, so we didn't get to hear any music. We were sitting right in front of the woodstove, so it was a little warm for me. Rick will tell you the hotflashes were because Mike,the man leading the sermon, was calling on people to read out loud from the Bible. P-A-N-I-C. I'll admit that thinking about trying to look up a Bible passage under pressure in front of people I didn't know, that all knew each other, had me looking for an escape route. Tyson got restless and started crawling around under the pews, so I had to take him outside. Thus I never got called on to read and I didn't get a good idea of the sermon. But it is a sweet little church filled with nice people.
**A few days later I was going into Warroad to do my shopping and realized that Mike, that did the church sermon, works at the border as a Customs Agent. As he checked me through to the US, I had to smile to myself. I was thinking that this man working for our country, also works for the most important Customs Agent there is. He checks me into my country, while the big guy will check me into eternity.
Lisa, We continue to enjoy your writing. When you wrote about the bear-at-the-dump site, I was reminded of the time that Carol and I were going to our pickup in the parking lot, and came upon grade-school-age Brian, now your bro-in-law, chasing a fairly large bear with a little stick. Carol remembers that I told him how incredibly stupid that activity was and that it was so stupid that I wouldn't even tell his mom and dad, or they might disown him.
