Father's Day Celebration

Tim Funk had the morning service. Children obey your parents for this is right!, Honor your father and mother as this is the first commandment with promise that your days may be long.
How hard is it how to honor our parents, I only wish my dad was still here to honor and obey. If you still have a father on this earth and you choose not to honor or obey is this a sin? Would God even care? Tim brought up by learning to obey one's father will teach how to obey authority. Research shows that 4 out of 10 children in America have no father. Of course there was much more to this service of love.
After lunch Fred Funk had the afternoon service, starting with reading #55 in the Hymn's of Zion. We sang this earlier and Fred started the service by asking us, is it well with your soul?
We headed to Sam's for steak and dog food after church, arriving at the farm with enough time to cook a delicious meal for the dads. Actually Mark ended up doing the grilling as he is the best. Karin and Rhoda helped with Mike and Diane's company taking them on trail rides. Rhoda rode DaMita and Karin rode Dalia, Mika, Bunni, Sally and Paris finished out the group.
A bunch of the family arrived for the weekly volley ball games after 5:30pm. Tony Plattner of Plattner Orthopedic came over to see how Raven's brace needed to be adjusted and took it home for adjustments. Imagine this service, coming not just on Sunday but on Fathers day. Jared Plattner will bring it back with a couple of his workers tomorrow late morning. After the games the kids took off, mom and I cleaned up the playground then headed in for the evening.
