Fran Is Back!...Go Out To All The World And Tell The Good News!!!

TO ALL MY LOYAL SUBSCRIBERS AND FRIENDS!!! I have waited until Sunday Afternoon to post this:

For the last 40 hours I have been on a spiritual retreat with my 13 & 11 year old sons! There were over 300 other men on this retreat with us...!

The needs of our industry and the depressed real estate market were two of my prayer intentions that were privately offered for all the men to pray about!

Please know that although I have been absent in body from my Active Rain Community, I have not forgotten my friends and subscribers here...in fact I pray for you and the needs of your families and businesses each day!!!

I pray that the Lord will bless you, your families, and your businesses this holiday and Holyday season with abundant blessings, comfort, and renewed faith, hope, and love!

With expectant faith and the best wishes for a Merry Christmas...Fran

Fran,

Happy Holidays to you, and your family.

Sincerely

Tom Braatz

Tom,

You are one of the good friends on AR that always remain in my thoughts and prayers!!! Thanks, Fran

Welcome back - where did you go? Did your kids enjoy the retreat as much as you did?

You know, some times it is the short breaks like that one that our body needs. I'm glad to have you back though!

Todd

Fran:

Welcome Back. It sounds like it was a great retreat.

Chris: This was my 11 year old's first retreat...my 13 year old's second...they both can't wait to go back next year!!!

Todd: Short time...great bonding...I thank the Lord for my wonderful kids...They make me proud!!!

Thanks, Fran

Bill,

It was...and the Lord and my sons never cease to amaze me!!! Thanks, Fran

So tell us, Fran. Did you get the shakes or withdrawals not being on the internet and bloggin' on Active Rain?

Fran.... welcome back. Glad that you got to spend some quality time with your sons.

Chris: To tell you the truth, the only thing that bothered me was guilt from not being able to respond to the comments...I did miss the people here though!!!

Jeff: Lots of guys fron Jersey there...and some were real estate people too!!! Come next year!

Thanks, Fran

Merry Christmas, Fran!!!! you were missed!

Hey Fran,

That is great that you have taken your boys to this retreat. I'm sure they will get alot out of it. Thanks for the prayers.

You were away for 40 hours. That number has many biblicle connotations.

That's a beautiful thing for you and your son's. I'm glad to hear they can't wait to go back.

May GBY and yours!

Hi Fran !

Nice to see you back. I hope your sons enjoyed the retreat as much as you did. Your energy just leaps off the screen....

Fran I know it wasn,t 40 hours but I just got back from a six hour prayer vigil. Some of the best time i ever spent.

Fran,

A time of refreshing is a great idea. Good for you that you were able to do that with your kids.

Thank you for your well wishes for the holidays. I have to say that I am not very enthusiastic about Christmas this year. 3 of my 5 children will not be home and the heavy commercialism of Christmas, Walmart had Christmas stuff out at Halloween, is a turn-off to me.

Fortunately, the reason, or the original reason, anyway, that we celebrate Christmas is something I celebrate in my heart almost everyday of the year...the birth of Christ.

God Bless,

Barbara-Jo & Bill: Thanks for noticing!!!

Sean: They were both amazingly attentive throughout...especially at mealtime!

Armando: Yes, especially the number of hours Jesus spent in the tomb!!!

Jo: I think they are even more enthused than I...they are already planning on attending next year!!!

Hugh: I don't think the Lord measures the value of prayer in 'hours'...Quality over quantity is key!!!

Fran: You've got it right...ignore the rest of the world!!!

Thanks, Fran

Welcome back, Fran. May the Father continue to bless you and your family. Merry Christmas.

Hi Fran,
A retreat is wonderful for the body and soul. Thanks for keeping all of us in your prayers.

What a great experience to share with your sons! It's something they probably will always remember fondly, especially as adults. I thank you for coming back and commenting on my post.

Roberta: I thank my wife who makes this whole event possible!

Jesse & Kathy: Thanks for the blessing...may I extend the same to your family...this is how we love one another and please our heavenly Father!

Cynthia: Yes it is...now back to the grind...I hope I can adopt a new 'be attitude'!

Margaret: It's always a pleasure!!!

Thanks, Fran

Fran, thanks for praying for all of us. Glad you are refreshed and a great spirtual retreat.

Missy,

Great bonding, great praying, great food, great memories, great place, great God!!! Thanks, Fran

Fran: What a wonderful time of just being with the Lord! I know you are rejuvinated and refreshed. How wonderful to hear that 300 men were gathered to go before the Father. Merry Christmas to you also!
