Our last day of the year

Here in SJC, I preached this morning in the meeting of the saints, by request: “A verdade”. Many are traveling, but the number was still good.

The city sponsored a foot race early this morning, so two of the main avenues on our side of town were closed for that, and we had to take a long route around. Paulo is without a car, and we went by and picked him up. So we left around 8 a.m.

We had lunch at a Chinese buffet in the Colinas mall. Twas nice to feel the air conditioning, although the day was a tad cooler. Then a quiet rest of day.

My energy level picked up today. Maybe recovery from the long travel has arrived.

I've worked on some ideas for the new year, will continue to do that tomorrow. Time to get organized, right? The new year is rushing toward us.

I'm forming a list of books to read for 2024. I've done little reading the last few years, aside from online articles and consulting reference works. Time to change that.

The first trimester already has some major events:

Thanks for being a part of our life this year. May next year bring friends closer, make the truth sharper, and bring Heaven nearer.
