We give thanks for the life of David Drumm who died earlier this week. Dave, a published cartoonist, designed Paraclete Post's logo. Dave inspired others to serve Jesus with a joyful heart. He will be remembered for his work advocating for the hungry, making others laugh, and his love for the church. Well done, good and faithful servant.

Christ’s Entry into Brussels is the latest book in your mailbox. This story is full of all sorts of kooky characters, many of which look like toys! You can make scenes from the story using the cutout included with your parcel. Using models or figures to recreate parts of a story is called a tableau. Have a photograph of your tableau? Email it to [email protected] and we will share it on social media.

Yesterday, we had the joy of leading a workshop on using art to support the spiritual development of children during Southern Ohio Synod ELCA's 2026 Bishop's Convocation. We discussed spiritual play, faith conversations, and the kinds of art we surround ourselves with. Has your congregation ever done an Art Audit of your building? Thanks Pastor Aaron Layne of taking pictures!

This storm has been a doozy and we are still digging ourselves out. Luckily, the February books were delivered to our office and unpacked last week before the storm started! Keep safe and stay inside and read a book!
