• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

For those of you who observe any of the varied holidays that fall on October 31 -- Christians observing the eve of All Saints' Day, Pagans observing Samhain, Lutherans observing Reformation Day, anyone observing the secular day of Dress Up and Eat Candy -- I wish you a blessed day. May you be surrounded by the warmth of friends. May your departed loved ones rest in peace, enfolded in the arms of God's love.

For those of you who observe no holiday today, but who see it as one more day of Ordinary Time, may you see God in the ordinary today, in all the ways that God cares for you in the everyday events of daily life.

Pretty uneventful evening for me. More depressed that it's the last day of October (mainly due to the approaching winter weather..), although I do like Thanksgiving time.
