Thanks, Kathy. My son is bridging from Cub to Boy Scouts in a month...right in the middle of the Centennial. How special is that!?!

[Maine Mariner]

I am sure your son will enjoy scouting.
I was a scout about 50 years ago and am active as an Assistant Scoutmaster today. Once change that I have noticed, very few boys are earning their God and Church awards (God and Country when I was a scout). If your son is so inclined, that may be something to work for as well as Eagle.

IE and Vista are fighting me.....I’m trying to use Firefox, but it won’t Preview a thread without half the graphics off center. GRRRRRR! I HATE VISTA and it makes IE quit.

Thanks for coming to the rescue. You were right to worry. LOL!!

[SandRat]

A PRAYER OF PROTECTION

The light of God surround you
The love of God enfold you
The power of God protect you
The presence of God watch over you
Wherever you are, God is,
And all is well.
Amen.

BLESS THIS HOUSE

 Bless this house O Lord we pray; Make it safe by night and day; 
Bless these walls so firm and stout, Keeping want and trouble out:
Bless the roof and chimneys tall, Let thy peace lie over all;
Bless this door, that it may prove ever open to joy and love.
Bless these windows shining bright, Letting in God's heav'nly light;
Bless the hearth a'blazing there, with smoke ascending like a prayer;
Bless the folk who dwell within, keep them pure and free from sin;
Bless us all that we may be Fit O Lord to dwell with thee;
Bless us all that one day we May dwell O Lord with thee.

Thanks, AZ, for the red, white, and blue tribute.

On my screen in Firefox....everything is left justified. In IE, everything is centered. *sigh*

[SandRat]

Way to go!!!!

[AZamericonnie]

It’s all centered here & looks spot on!
