From Donna's Library, The Articles of Faith from the founding of the Church

I took the time in the church library while Donna was reshelving books to look for the Articles of Faith from when the church was established. Between services, I said "hello" to Mark,the present minister, who was busy and remarked that we still use the Articles of Faith today, "I know that well." The first minister of the Park Street Church,Boston was Edward Griffin, also the first Phi Beta Kappa student at Yale, and apparently Donna was Phi Beta before I met her. His particular theme was preaching against something referred to as the New Divinity. I was surfing today and found that we are listed by the National Historical Park Service along with our adjacent Granary Burial Ground. The president at the time was James Madison. Below is a historical perspective.

This time our plant found the little “love” pillow.

I honestly had to dust the television after coming home from church, but please look and the previous entry to see how its grown- it found the little "love" pillow Donna's grandmother had given her - after sprawling across the floor, over a plastic storage bin and up the side of the tv stand for over five feet, most likely seven; it has sixty five leaves across for two of its ten "vines", most likely one hundread leaves, more likely over one hundread and ten or one hundread and twenty.
