The Lowdens' Lines: October 2010
http://lowdenblog.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 26, 2010. How many things can go wrong on the Sunday morning that a pastor has to preach a sermon for a visiting Call Committee to hear? Doubtless, our clergy friends would be able to share a list worthy of being included in the annals of “The Best of Murphy’s Law.”. Feel free to share others that aren’t included below. Forgot your clerical shirt tab? Got lost on the way to the “neutral site”? Alarm clock didn’t go off? Didn’t have your cincture? The list is endless! She didn’t hav...

The Lowdens' Lines: February 2011
http://lowdenblog.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 6, 2011. Souper, Super Sunday. Today was one of those Sundays when too many things were going on at once. It was wonderful! The tone for the service was set by the answer to a riddle. David Albin, one of our stand-up comedians, gave an announcement about the Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper and Comedy Night that is planned for March 8. He asked, "Why did the Zion congregational member cross the road? Since February 8 is the anniversary of the founding of the Boy Scouts in the U.S., ...Looki...

The Lowdens' Lines: March 2011
http://lowdenblog.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 28, 2011. It's been a month! One month ago today, we filled up a moving van and both our cars and moved everything (well almost everything) we own to Lancaster County. We're starting to feel at home at 1600 Parvin Rd. Oh, the walls are still pretty bare, and there are still boxes in the garage to be unpacked, but we're slowly getting settled. Bob bought his "dream" television- a 55" screen, LED, LCD digital model. He's been having fun figuring out how to hang it above the fireplace in t...

The Lowdens' Lines: November 2010
http://lowdenblog.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 21, 2010. Bob and I were on our way to Bally's on Friday to continue our quest to get back in shape when I missed the bottom step and fell. My right foot twisted under me in such a way that I was in immediate pain. Determined to do the workout we had planned, I limped to the car, and we went to the spa. From now on, I'm really watching out for that last step! Links to this post. Saturday, November 20, 2010. How much wood can a woodchuck chuck? Have you see this recent GEICO commercial?

The Lowdens' Lines: September 2010
http://lowdenblog.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 30, 2010. About Interviews, Laptops, and Trial Sermons. Isn't it amazing how much can happen in just a few days? As soon as JMe posted the first entry on Monday, she checked our emails recieved that day. Lo and behold.there was a church site in PA willing to have her preach and lead worship on October 10 in order for the Call Committee to observe! Spending so much money when we don't have employment is a bit scary, but in these days, one just can't function without a computer. We than...

The Lowdens' Lines: January 2011
http://lowdenblog.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 30, 2011. We Have Decided on a New House! On Friday, January 28, we signed papers indicating our intention to buy a house. After viewing about 20 houses within eight miles of Landisville, we went back to the development where we started and to the floor plan we liked the best. We have a tentative closing date of March 1, 2011. We will soon be the owners of two houses- one in Maryland and one in Pennsylvania. It’s in a great location for us both. We’re both excited and a bit anxious. It...

The Lowdens' Lines: The Church of Jurassic Park
http://lowdenblog.blogspot.com/2015/07/the-church-of-jurassic-park.html
Sunday, July 19, 2015. The Church of Jurassic Park. Today, I drove to church and ended up in Jurassic Park. Like the crazy people in the movie who just refuse to realize the danger of dinosaurs, I fled the place in fear and consternation. No, I wasn't in Disney World. I was at the area mega"church" known as LCBC (Lives Changed by Christ). I followed the dinosaur footprints on the floor into a room that looked like a paleontologist's laboratory- complete with interactive displays of hatched dinosaurs eggs...

Saturday, December 25, 2010. Greetings to all of our family and friends on this most blessed day of the year- the Birthday of Jesus Christ, our Lord. We pray that you are all experiencing the joy of this season as you enjoy time in worship, sing carols telling the story if Jesus’ birth, and share gifts and time with family and friends. Remember, Christmas lasts 12 days! Our first Christmas Eve in PA was wonderful! The three services at Zion were well attended. We woke up this morning in our cozy little r...
