Bro. Cantu,
I have heard about it today on the news....I was thrilled :). There is after
all still sanity somewhere in our governments. I hope that this law will be
an example to the German government, which is currently dealing with the
same thing whether to allow homosexual marriages, or give them the same
legal rights as married couples. (yuk). Doris
P.S. Did you ever get my mail where I told you I was baptized in Security,
Colorado in '87? Is Bro. Garner still pastor there? Would you please ask
him, if he remembers a German woman he baptized in '87 (probably won't).
Tell him I'm doing fine...I'm still in church and God is still number 1 in
my life. :)
