FOR DOROTHY
We share the days and nights together, the mornings and the afternoons,
the kitchen and the news and weather, the birthdays and a hundred tunes.
Oh, but it’s not easy to express the way I feel. No, it isn’t easy just to show my love is real.
I like your style of conversation,
the way you walk and what you wear. I like your special sense of humour and jokes that only we can share.
Oh, how I love your eyes; they speak more than words of the song that is you inside.
So much of you is in my breathing. You’re written into every scene.
I love you more than songs and singing, I want to stay inside your dreams.

ALWS 29/5/24
In May 2023 we travelled to the Mentawai Islands in Indonesia, seeing work supported by Australian Lutheran World Service. Dorothy and I are Ambassadors for the ALWS programme, Lives You Touch. We are encouraging people to leave money in their will for the work of ALWS. We committed to leave a third of our will many years ago and hope many others can touch lives in this way.
Last year we visited churches in SA, Vic, Qld and WA with Jonathan & Julie Krause promoting the cause of ALWS.
Coming up soon:
