Of course we are brothers and sisters in the Lord,Isn't it interesting how we are joined together as friends  though the forum as well.some ask and others take time to answer questions.We have also expressed how we feel one another with the posts of Dann.If it doesn't offend any body ,I would like to know to introduce ourselves by mentioning only in which country and city we are.You know some times I find myself laughing and smiling.Before yesterday ,while I was on the phone in different times with different brothers my eyes were concentrated to the forum,and I laughed with out being aware.What I want to say is not to tell you ,what I have done what I shouldn't do,but more interesting is how I enjoy the communication with different brothers and sisters in the forum.So if you just name the country and city you live, I consider it as a valuable present.I would like to thank everybody and logos for giving us this opportunity.

Frankfurt-Germany

God bless everybody.

Blessings in Christ.

    Well, Tucson, Arizona, USA  here.  I want to go a bit more Tes.  Sorry....I am a career changer.  The Lord has closed doors on my first career ( and for that I am grateful).  I was a Teacher of Mathematics and Physical Sciences to 13-17 year olds.  I believe the Lord is seeming to open a couple of paths.  I am starting in the next month a few courses in biochemistry, physical chemistry, organic chemistry.  In the mean time, my pastor has asked me to teach a lesson and I can see it leading to more.  He has agreed to check out nontraditional paths to enter the ministry.  An opportunity that I was feeling was closed perm. for me.  I will just have to see.  In the summers here we get temperatures that are about 43 degree C  as highs and lows about 30 degree C.

    Hello Tes,

    I'm from West Virginia, USA.

    I'm not a Pastor, nor am I even a teacher or any other church office holder.

    I just love studying His word...and Logos is a great way to do it!

     

    God bless,

    bob

    Tes,

    Like Dave I come from Australia. But I'm from Sydney which is higher and better than Melbourne.

    I am gradually translating the whole Bible. Because I do this while travelling on the train when finished it will be the first trainslation of the Bible.

    Because I am old, I am still using Logos 3. Nothing wrong with that .... I am still using WordPro.

    Asheboro, North Carolina, USA, home of the North Carolina Zoo. I have retired from the US Navy after 20+ years, retired from serving as Pastor after 25+ years, and am now semi-retired from a family business after 7 years. Now, I teach Sunday School and a Home Bible Study, and try to help my Pastor.

    hey Tes,

    I live in Monroe, Michigan, just south of Detroit on Lake Erie.  I was in Miami, FL before that.  I have moved a lot (even lived in Grundy VA, Robert--coal country, a stone's throw form W. Va), even Germany, as you know- Berlin and Munich.  Jack--ever go to the story teller's convention there in Asheboro? Graham, thanks for sticking to the OP guidelines.  You're a stand up guy.  [:P] 

    William, didn't know they used Celsius in AZ.  You guys must not be American.  Edwin, did you ever listen to games that Rush Limbaugh announced? 

    You guys from Australia . . . . Hooton, I think think Stephen wants to rumble.

    I like Apples.  Especially Honeycrisp.

    I've always wanted to visit Frankfurt after taking three years in German in highschool.  Alas.

    For the last 12 years I've pastored in Moweaqua, Illinois - USA.

    Hmm Sarcasm is my love language. Obviously I love you.

    Poolesville, Maryland, USA.  It's a tiny rural place about 30 minutes above Washington, DC.  I'm tying up ends here to move.  I am a retired nurse, currently employed as a database analyst for a non-profit.

    I am restless, waiting to see what my real calling is now that I am back in the Word and listening to God's voice again.  Neither my occupation nor my location feels right now.

    Dan, your summary of everyone's posts made me laugh out loud!  :-)

    Very nice to meet you, Tes!  And everyone else!

    Graham and Ted, are you going to Morris Procter's seminar in London in Feb? Maybe we can meet up?   I hope to make a trip back to England for that!  I used to live in London, but have been in Albania for the last 17 years.  I teach the Bible via storying and bind up wounds and burns on the side in a small Muslim village.

    I live and pastor the church in Cesky Tesin, the oldest town of the Ostrava metropolitan area in the Czech Republic. This year our church celebrated 100 years of existence and our town 1200 years since its legendary beginning. It used to be the capital of the Austrian Silesia. Our town is devided between Czech Republic and Poland, it used to be called in the past Teshen in German or Cieszyn in Polish.

    You can find some more information about Silesia here and about the Teschen Silesia (The Duchy of Teshen) here.

    Bohuslav,

    I'm sure I must have at least been  through Cesky Tesin on my travels, tho I spent more time in Nova Paka, Kyjov, Olomouc.  I forget now.  I have to  confess I actually spent most of my time in Slovakia.  Celebrated the Velvet Revolution partly in Prague (as I walked down Bartolomejska I was actually followed by a guy who was obviously STB, but not yet aware that he'd been dissolved - till I turned round and started following him - and then he disappeared!!) and mostly in Presov.  I haven't been back to Czech Republic and Slovakia since democracy as I was spending all my free time in Albania before coming to live here permanently in 1993.

    Did not know there was a Morris seminar in London? Thanks for the info, and Yes if it takes off it will be nice to meet another Logos user.

    Jack--ever go to the story teller's convention there in Asheboro?

    I grew up here, but left immediately after high school in 1955. I moved back to Asheboro in 2005. In all that time, I have not heard of the story teller's convention, although I do know a few who can tell some tall tales. Do you have any more information? You haven't confused Asheboro with Asheville have you?

    EDIT: My wife just informed me that Dan knows more about my hometown than I do. [8-|]

    Great to hear that Nicky,

    On your travels from Prague to Presov (Slovakia) you probably passed trough our town. Main train track from Prague to Slovakia goes through our place. This railway has been one of the reasons our town had been cut in two parts between Poland and Czechoslovakia after WW One (to keep it in one country) [:)]

    Ted, if you hear about the Logos Seminar in London, let me know. I would be very happy to come and take part of that event (much closer than US) [:)]

    Ted,

    Sometime around 15th Feb at Proclamation Trust if I'm not mistaken. There's a taster and a full seminar.  My one hesitation is the weather this end.  My neighbour housesits and is not always effective at thawing frozen pipes, sometimes with expensive consequences.  But Global Warming has reduced this risk!

    Where are you in London?  I usually stay with friends in Beckenham.

    William, didn't know they used Celsius in AZ.  You guys must not be American.

    Dan, No Arizonans are American.  Now, when I lived in New Mexico......That was a foreign country.  Seriously, on a couple of occasions I was asked to add foreign postage from a Post Office in Norfolk, VA. 

    I use Celsius for a couple of reasons.  The rest of the world has it right.  Celsius is God's scale for temperature. [:)]

    Nicky, thanks for that. I had missed the announcement.

    I am just checking on the dates, I think I might have a prior commitment.

    Edwin, did you ever listen to games that Rush Limbaugh announced? 


    Rush worked for the Royals shortly before I moved to KC. He never announced. He was in charge of pregame activities like scheduling the first pitch and the national anthem. He and George Brett are good friends. He moved to Sacremento from KC.
