  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

  • The rule regarding AI content has been updated. The rule now rules as follows:

    Be sure to credit AI when copying and pasting AI sources. Link to the site of the AI search, just like linking to an article.

They ended up somewhere else from about 1:30 on - I picked them up when I got off work and brought them home because neither were in any condition to drive. Actually, one of them would have been ok, but I needed her to help me carry the other, and let her dogs out when we got to her house, etc. Even though they drank themselves silly, they really have a good attitude about it.

It's just shocking - the company they work for, a nationally known real estate company (the biggest in St. Louis) has gone from well over 100 employees in the corporate office a year ago, and when this round is through, there will only be 20 left.
We just hear more about this every day. It's so hard. My husband's job is similar to this....we never know from day to day, just what's going to happen.

Hope your friends are going to be ok.

It's at 11 AM this morning (25 minutes from now) and it's just the tongue. They are going to start him on radiation as well.
Thanks the Lord the jaw does not need to be worked on ...

Please pray that Mike and I find Aggie! We've looked everywhere and can't find her. I've done everything I can think of to try and "call" her out of whatever hidey hole she might be in the house and I've been out for 1/2 an hour calling and looking for her.

It's 3:30 in the morning. I've been up all night staring at the door willing Aggie to come home. One of the neighborhood cats, Hobbs, came by around 1 and meowed at me but he didn't seem to know where she was either.

I can't go through this again.

Thanks, Flipper and everyone who is praying!

I'm doing better today. The shock and numb have worn off and action is taking place. It'll be better on Monday once I get to call places and go drop off pictures and stuff.

God loves her. He loves sparrows, and flies and cockroaches. So I KNOW He loves Aggie. He's watching over her and will bring her home. One way or another, He'll bring her home.

I ask for prayers for our son, Aaron. He and his family were here on vacation and they left Monday afternoon. He returned to work Thursday night shift. Last night he got caught in some of the machinery (he works heavy machinery repair). He lost portions of three fingers on his left hand. He was in surgery over night, but they couldn't re-attach the finger pieces. They sent him home from the hospital tonight, and he has a last protective frame around the hand. Of course, he is drugged heavily, but it was so good to hear his voice!

We are thankful he is alive! My wife's cousin was caught in machinery 40 years ago and died within hours.

Oh filo, so sorry to hear about this. Prayers of healing, and of thankfulness that Aaron is alive! :prayer:
