Ken this one fits too.

There's a church in the valley by the wildwood,
No lovelier place in the dale.
No spot is so dear to my childhood,
As the little brown church in the vale.

How sweet on a clear Sabbath morning,
To listen to the clear ringing bells.
Its' tones so sweetly are calling,
Oh, come to the church in the vale.
Oh, come, come, come, come,
Come to the church by the wildwood,
Oh, come to the church in the dale.
No spot is so dear to my childhood,
As the little brown church in the vale.

There, close by the church in the valley,
Lies one that I loved so well.
She sleeps, sweetly sleeps, 'neath the willow,
Disturb not her rest in the vale.

There, close by the side of that loved one,
'Neath the trees where the sweet flowers bloom.
When the farewell hymns shall be chanted,
I shall rest by her side in the tomb.

Oh, come, come, come, come,
Come to the church by the wildwood,
Oh, come to the church in the dale.
No spot is so dear to my childhood,
As the little brown church in the vale.

Well aint this just interesting. Whodathunkit, religious talk amongst cast booliters.

Good addition. I don't get much into small talk and the such. But when it comes to guns and God, I could talk all day long. I have engaged in other subjects in the past, on other forums, but found it always leads to fighting and such. Everyone has an opinion for sure.

I'm glad to see you putting this on here. This forum is where I spend most of my time when I'm online. I have only one other forum I visit, but only because its a home state forum. I just talk guns and such on there. Been talking a lot about boolits on there also, got one of them to come join over here recently and have even seen a few guys from here on there.

Anyways, glad you decided to add this to the list. Just about makes for a well rounded forum now.

Way to go, Ken. I'm certainly glad and praising the Lord Jesus Christ for your decision to include Jesus in the greatest forum on the internet. Folks, just remember what Jesus said, that the world hated me before it hated you. I also found out that one does not choose Jesus, but He chose you even before the foundations of the earth.

I also want to add to the prayers for SmokemJoe. Now I know that this board will take off even to new heights as we give thanks and praise to the Saviour. I personally thank you, Ken, for this decision. My heart leapt with joy when I saw this subforum. BC

The church this speaks of is in Nashua, Iowa. Been there several times over the years.

Just want to add my thanks for this new area, even if a little late.

Great idea, thanks! I think any forum should be able to let members know that other members may need their thoughts and prayers. Most times praying to lighten anothers' burden makes our own seem a good bit lighter. I've even seen prayer threads on a secure Ford (owned & operated) website used by dealership parts & service professionals. Mostly we help each other out with catalog issues, dealing with company policies and share best business practices but sometimes a member needs our thoughts & prayers and invariably he/she gets dozens of them from all over the country. More than once they've been printed out for the stricken member and his family to read, it lets them know they aren't alone.
