"ALL HANDS ON DECK"

"ALL HANDS ON DECK" 

Hello Everyone: 

Have you ever heard the phrase "All Hands On Deck"? Well; that is a phrase that is used in the U. S. Navy, when everyone's help is needed to perform a specific job or function. All Hands gather to make the job a lot easier. 

Yesterday; my friend Rob and I took a trip and spent the day at Battleship Cove in Fall River, Ma. 











In the above picture, you can see the four main ships that you can visit.

Here is their contact information:


BATTLESHIP COVE

5 Water Street
Fall River , MA 02721-1540

CALL US
Phone 1: 508-678-1100
Phone 2: 800-533-3194
Fax: 508-674-5597

Here are some pictures of the ships from their website.
USS MASSACHUSETTS BB-59









USS JOSEPH P. KENNEDY JR. DD-850













USS LIONFISH SS-298












RUSSIAN MISSILE CORVETTE "HIDDENSEE" 













You can also visit the PT BOAT EXHIBITION HALL, the 911 Memorial and they also have a gift shop. 

Battleship Cove is a great place to take your family for a day trip; I must say though, that it needs to be a fairly long day to get to see everything. You also need to be able to walk, climb, get into some confined areas, but it's well worth the trip. You can even arrange for a sleep over for a group you may be affiliated with. 

Let me at this time, share with you the pictures that we took on our trip yesterday.

HELICOPTER AND LANDING CRAFT:



USS LIONFISH (SS-298)



USS JOSEPH P. KENNEDY DD-850







RUSSIAN MISSILE CORVETTE "HIDDENSEE"


LAST; BUT NOT LEAST: USS MASSACHUSETTS BB-59








Visiting Battleship Cove is well worth the trip; there is so much more to see than just the few pictures that I have inserted. Unfortunately, for Rob and I, the Russian ship and the Sub were closed on the day we went as work was being done on them. 

Ship Ahoy Mates and have a great visit.

"From The Youngest; To The Oldest"

Good Morning Everyone:

Let me first take a minute to wish all of you a Very Blessed Resurrection Weekend. I pray that you will attend the church of your choice on Sunday to remember what Jesus Christ did for all of us when He laid down His life on that Old Rugged Cross.

Now; back to my blogging: You may think that the title of this Blog is a little different, and to honest; it is. That's why I want to explain it too all of you. 

My Blog, as you know is about following my adventures in life as a Pastor and also as a family man. 

But today; the blog takes a little twist on the pastoral side. I have mentioned in the past that we are involved in seven (7) different Nursing Homes, Assisted Living Communities and Adult Day Care Centers. I can assure you that I do not do these alone. I have one brother from the church that is involved in 3 of the 7, and I am personally involved in 6 of the 7 facilities. I have others who go with me to minister to the elderly, and that brings me to the point of this Blog. 

Recently; I have had one mother in the church with 4 young, and very active children approach me and asked me for information on going to one of the Nursing Homes to give out little gifts and crafts to the residents. She also stated that she had another young mom with two children that wanted to go with her. 

I can't tell you how excited I was to hear that. The nursing home that I gave her to try out, is one that one of our church members resides at. She and the kids had a BLAST! The second visit was on Good Friday; and the other mom went with her to pass out little gifts that the kids had made. The best part, is that they want to continue visiting the nursing home, as well as taking on the other facilities that we visit. This is awesome, because the folks who reside in these places have to be reached with the Message of Salvation, and they need to be shown the Love of Christ through examples. She is going to try to recruit other moms and kids to join her in this Ministry. 

The kids also enjoyed all the animals at the nursing home:  

Well; enough said: Enjoy the photos. 

Blessings:
