Link to yesterday’s post.
Holy Father, our rulers stumble, on stages, in their decisions regarding us, in our esteem, in morality. Doubting people getpunished more than willing criminals. Give our siblings the strength to stand up to their lies and reconquer our motherlands and keep our Faith and values to the top of our priorities.
AGENDA
Today, we celebrate the Persecution in Lyon: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persecution_in_Lyon
The persecution in Lyon in AD 177 was an outbreak of persecution of Christians in Lugdunum, Roman Gaul (present-day Lyon, France), during the reign of Marcus Aurelius (r. 161–180), recorded in a contemporary letter preserved in Eusebius's Ecclesiastical History, book 5, chapter 1, which was written 150 years later in Palestine. Gregory of Tours also describes the persecution in the 6th century in De Gloria martyrum. There were 48 victims at Lugdunum, half of them were of Greek origin, half Gallo-Roman.The elderly Bishop Pothinus, first Bishop of Lugdunum, was beaten and scourged, and died shortly after in prison. A slave, Blandina was subjected to extreme torture. She was initially exposed, hung on a stake, to be the food of the beasts let loose upon her. As none of the beasts at that time touched her; she was brought back again to the prison, before being cast in a net and thrown before a bull. Also martyred at this time were Attalus, Epipodius and Alexander, Maturus, Saint Ponticus, a fifteen-year-old boy, and Sanctus, a deacon from Vienne.

See you tomorrow, Frens!🤓
Amen.
Mary!🤗🙏🏻
I was kinda feeling lonely until you reminded me I am not. Current doing the chores and a little electronic music as well as my online jazz piano course.
Here’s my latest jam: The Jolly month before July https://youtu.be/4fWujfO2Yh8
Have a blessed day, I pray you enjoy every minute of it.🙏🏻
Thank you. I can use some jolly about now. I just told George that since I didn't get a day off; meaning Memorial Day, as I had a lot of chores to do and catch up on; that I may not go to church Sunday. I also have to babysit Sunday night because Tiffany won tickets to the Ryman Auditorium. That's the original home of the Grand Ole Opry before they built a new one. It is known as the Mother Church of Country Music as it originally was a church.
Yesterday George and I worked outside most all day. Then we came inside to cool off for a while. My daughter came inside about 5 minutes later to say she swore an old man's voice saying "Help me." So George and I got up and went outside again. Sure enough, we heard it coming from Steve's. Remember Steve? He died of a heart attack the beginning of the year. Well my daughter and I ran to the side of her house and George got in his truck to drive over. It seems Tammy/Steve's wife has moved her 79 yo father in with her and he went outside and fell and couldn't get up. So George picked him up and walked him inside. He asked him where his cane was and if he needed something to drink. Other than that, he was fine. Don't know how long he'd been out there but he was grateful.
Thanks God that old man cry for help was heard and you were the angels sent to save him. 🙏🏻💐
And not just that; we were worried that Tammy was going to sell her home and we'd never see her again. What a way to find out her father/ who is a Veteran is living with her. Tammy told George last night that he has a cell phone that he doesn't carry with him plus a Life Alert buzzer that he won't wear. So George asked her for her number as we only have Steves which is no longer in service so that in case this happens again we can contact her at work.
Thanks for sharing these constructive news, Mary!🤗💐
Yes, have a happy day and a great weekend. Got to go buy some potassium. It seems mine is a bit low. See ya later.
THE NUMBER 942 From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/900_(number)#940s : 942 = 2 × 3 × 157
LOL. Alrighty then.
There’s nothing matching 942, 6:157 or 157:6 in the Bible. Maybe in the Quran…
