I Am Jonah
In the end, my only hope is that Jesus is always the initiator of mercy. He pursues me, even when I am unfaithful.
As a little girl, I learned that there was a prophet named Jonah that God rescued by sending a great fish to swallow him and carry him safely to land. As an adult, I learned that Jonah was, basically, a jerk who chose to run away from God rather than go and preach to his enemies, because he knew that God was going to have mercy on them and he didn’t want any part of that. Today, I learned that I am Jonah.

Albany man rescued from Lake George by priests on a floating tiki bar
"How funny is it that I've been sober for seven years and I get saved by a tiki bar?" MacDonald laughed.
LAKE GEORGE - It was a choppy afternoon on the lake and Jimmy MacDonald from Albany was paddling in a kayak.
As MacDonald tells it, he drifted away from his wife and step kids because he was taking pictures with his new smartphone "and not really paying attention."
As he tried to make his way back, the water got choppier, and he paddled harder before he tipped over and lost his paddle.
He was in about 30 feet of water, his ill-fitting life jacket coming up over his head, and he was holding onto the kayak with one hand and his new $1,400 smartphone with the other.
He says people -- other kayakers and canoeists -- were passing by in the distance, but the former amateur boxer's pride wouldn't let him scream for help. So for several exhausting minutes he kept trying to right the kayak.
"That's when I said, 'Alright, I think I might die today. I think this might be it.' I prayed to my lord and savior Jesus Christ for help," MacDonald said.
Greg Barrett is a captain for Tiki Tours.
"A lot of things aligned that day," Barrett said.
He typically pilots partiers, but not on this day.
Repurpose an Old IPad
Donate Old Ipad
You can help us support patients in hospitals who have COVID-19. Donate your old IPad to help our groups in hospital!
ICTR (International Collaborative for Trauma and Resilience) is supporting the mental health of patients in hospitals who have COVID-19 by facilitating virtual group meetings.
The idea may be seeming simple, a group that takes place twice weekly for 50 minutes, but the outcomes speak volumes.
These groups support health recovery and aid in reducing isolation, increasing resilience for patients through contact, sharing, laughter and companionship.
One of greatest challenges being a not for profit is always funding but in this case the challenge is more personal in that not all patients are fortunate to have access to iPads.
So, we are appealing to the public to please help these patients and donate an iPad (an older one you may no longer use) to our effort. Your donation will help us to better the lives that have already suffered so much, by giving them access to behavioral health and breaking their isolation.
In order to donate the iPads please email drraz@theictr.org. We will contact you back and send you instructions.
