On Thursday morning, an additional video was added here. Other updates are forthcoming to this blog post. This is another supremely hectic week for the newspaper. Our Thursday morning is being consumed by a trip to St. Cloud to the CentraCare Plaza near Sartell. My wife has another doctor appointment as we further research why she is battling deadly blood clots.
The Lenten season is now in the second week for the Christian faith. Lenten worship services were held at a few area churches tonight. I've got a video featuring part of the Ash Wednesday Mass one week ago tonight in Brooten at St. Donatus. You can find that at the Bonanza Valley Voice newspaper website by clicking here: https://rb.gy/lx2jlz.
Tonight I took in a soup and sandwich supper plus a joint West Lake Johanna and Trinity Lutheran parish worship service at Trinity in Brooten. One week ago, I enjoyed a soup and sandwich supper at Grace Lutheran church in Belgrade. SUCH good food!!
While it ultimately came at the cost of speech team coverage, I finally got a story written with an ample array of pictures for B-B-E's Resistance Robotics team. You can see that in this week's February 22 issue of The Voice. They have an outstanding group of students on this year's team who are gearing up for the Great Northern Regional to be held in Grand Forks on March 6 to March 9. I am already making plans to travel to Grand Forks that weekend. We'll see how it all pans out.
