One of my favorite stories is about Chippie the para-
keet. Chippie was a happy little bird, content every day to sit
on his perch, swinging and singing to his little heart’s con-
tent. One day Chippie’s owner took the initiative to clean
out his cage. She took off the attachment from the end of the
vacuum hose and stuck it in the cage to remove the sediment
from the bottom. Just then the phone rang. She turned to
pick it up and had barely said hello when "ssupp!" Chippie
got sucked in! As you can imagine, the bird owner gasped,
dropped the phone, turned off the vacuum and ripped open
the bag. Inside, there lay Chippie, still alive but stunned by
the trauma. The bird was covered with all the terrible grit
and grime that fills vacuum bags, so the owner did the only
thing she could think to do. She grabbed him up, raced to the
bathroom, turned on the faucet, and held Chippie under run-
ning water. Then realizing poor little Chippie was soaked
and shivering, she did what any good bird owner would do.
She reached for the hair dryer and blasted the little guy with
hot air. Poor Chippie never knew what hit him. A couple of
days after the experience, the reporter who first wrote about
the event talked to Chippie’s owner. He asked how the bird
was doing. She said, "Well Chippie doesn’t sing much any-
more-he just sits and stares." It’s no wonder. One minute the
little guy was swinging and singing, and before he knew it
he was sucked in, washed up and blown over. If that doesn’t
turn your song into a blank stare, nothing will.
In his book In the Eye of a Storm, Max Lucado
talks about traveling from one speaking engagement to an-
other. He had traveled from San Antonio to Boston and had
spoken at a gathering in Boston. Then he was flying on to
Edmonton, Canada to fulfill a speaking engagement there.
When his plane landed in Minneapolis and he had to change
airplanes, he was thinking about how tired and hungry he
was, how crowded the airplane had been, how his back was
aching and how his mind was hurting. Try as he might, he
couldn’t even remember who was supposed to meet him at
his destination in Canada. As he was heading to the gate
to catch his next airplane, he saw a McDonald’s in the dis-
tance and thought, "That looks good. Maybe I’ll run over
there, buy a hamburger and that will at least satisfy my
hunger pains." Then he writes, "I passed something better.
I passed a telephone and decided to call home. I called and
my wife answered the phone. I’m convinced that when my
wife gets to heaven she’s going to be at the reception desk
welcoming everyone in because when she answers the
phone it makes you feel so good." He continued, "I just
talked with her. We settled earth-shaking issues. We talked
about the weather in San Antonio vs. the weather in New
England. We talked about what the girls did when they
went to school that day and that one of them was going to
have a friend over to spend the evening." "We talked about
earth-shaking things like that," he said. "And after I had
finished talking with her I really felt good. Then she passed
the receiver over to one of my daughters who told me about
her day. When she finished she said, “I love you, Dad.’"
And he said, "It felt good to be loved." Then the phone was
passed over to the next daughter and she talked to him for a
while and she said, "I miss you, Dad." And he said, "It felt
good to be missed." Then he said, "They passed the phone
over to the little six-month-old baby, and I talked to my
baby over the phone. I cooed and I talked baby talk, and
the people passing by looked at me in strange ways. But it
felt good to be cooed at. Then we hung up and I made my
way on to the next gate." He recalled, "I forgot how hun-
gry I was. I forgot how tired I was because I had called
home and that made all the difference in the world." Then
he adds, "Maybe we all ought to call home more often. If
you do, you will find the listening ear of God so anxious to
talk to you. He will make you feel good from the top of
your head to the bottom of your feet. And as you grow in
your love, you’ll find your fears disappear."
Think about it, Jeff

Thank you so much for your kind expression of love shown to our family.

Dear Church Family,
Words cannot begin to express our gratitude for all that was done for us during Darlene’s illness. Prayers, cards,
visits, etc. overwhelmed us with the love that our church family has for us. God has truly blessed us by sending us to Walnut.
It would be impossible to thank each person individually, but please know each one of you are very special to us and hold a
very special place in our hearts. Thank you for being such a supportive family to two transplants!!
Noel & Darlene Jordan
A big thank you to the F.O.R.C.E. teams that helped move our mother to the

A VERY SPECIAL THANK YOU
To Some Behind-The-Scenes People!!!!!
Sometimes people do things that no one knows about, so we want to take
this opportunity to say “Thank you”.
To: Bettie Fray for our Card Ministry To: Amanda Staples for planting our flowers
To: Our Funeral Meal Committees To: Our Men’s F.O.R.C.E. teams for your work
To: Walt Robinson & his crew for trimming our bushes and shrubs.
To: Richard & Sharon Russelburg for spraying weeds.
We truly appreciate all that you do for our church!!
We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their prayers & calls during the recent illness & death
of our father & grandfather Robert Keenan. We especially want to thank the Pastoral staff & Deacons for their visits to the
hospital. I know he appreciated it. Thank you also for the donation of the Gideon Bibles & to the Cornerstone Bible Study
class for the donation to the Building Fund in his memory.
We were overwhelmed with the support shown during the visitation & funeral. A special thanks for the meal that
was provided for our family. It gave us a great opportunity to fellowship with family we had not seen in years. Even though
the service was performed honorably by his grandsons Donald & Lee Rice, we still very much appreciate the wonderful
pastors of WMBC. We are BLESSED to be part of such a loving church family.
