Our first grandchild, Nathanael Harrison Bergstrom, has arrived! He is a beautiful baby and we can't wait to get to New York to see and hold him! What a joy to see the miracle of this new baby. Below are a few pictures of this beautiful little guy. For more detail and pictures go to Jeremy & Jackies blog.

Our Grandson Nathanael Will be Here Soon!!

On July 12 our first grandchild is scheduled to enter the world. We're very excited for Jeremy and Jackie, the soon to be Aunt Sarah and of course ourselves. As soon as possible we will post a few pictures of Nathanael. Below are the excited soon to be parents during our visit to New York last year.

A Wonderful Retreat in Wisconsin

In May Linda and I went on a wonderful pastor/spouse retreat at Cedarly in Wisconsin. Cedarly is one of three locations operated by Pastors Retreat Network designed especially for pastoral couples. It was a wonderful week of relaxing, eating fantastic meals, taking canoe rides, riding bikes and just being lazy. We did a some exercises for spiritual renewal but mostly just enjoyed ourselves. If you're interested their web sit is pastorsretreatnetwork.org.

Less than a mile from Cedarly is an Episcopal seminary our son Jeremy told us about. The grounds were great and you could sense that it was a wonderful place to train for ministry and simply enjoy the pastoral setting. Below are a few pictures of Cedarly and the seminary.
