A Blessed Couple: Ruth and Gene

Ruth and Gene have been married for well over fifty years, and what a delight it was to be with them. They ooze caring love for one another and for their many children, nearly eighty grandkids altogether! Several years ago the Church blessed their earliler civil marriage, and during the blessing Gene was baptized into the Presence of God and the Body of Christ. As we watched the church at Saint Ignatius the Martyr bless them and Gene's baptism, both June and I sensed how close all of us are in the One Spirit, our One Lord Jesus, and our heavenly Father.
