A Visit with a Friend

I met (Fr.) Michael Carney at Baker Publishing in Grand Rapids. He graciously showed me around Grand Rapids helping me to find Eerdmans Publishing. We had a great discussion there and found out that one of the churches in his group is located just about 5 miles from ours. He called me up and let me know he was in the area so we met for breakfast and discussed many things. The picture isn't the greatest. The sun was very much in our eyes as well as being a cell phone camera. He brought gifts of homemade strawberry jelly and a book he had purchased for me. I thank him for his generosity and his friendship. I have learned much about the Russian Orthodox church.
