Condolences
Sympathy to the family of Leonard Rahjes. Leonard passed away on January 26, at the age of 74. The Celebration of Life service will be held Saturday, February 5, 2022 at 11am at St. John Lutheran Church in Kensington, KS. Genny, Luke, Charyne and Kevin would be glad to see you there.
Weekly Inspiration
Self care isn’t just treating yourself from time to time. It’s choosing to keep your peace during an argument. It’s not feeling guilty for saying no. It’s spending less time with negative people. It’s prioritizing your mental health. It’s making time to pray and meditate. It’s choosing not to take things personally.
