Prayers Answered

Daily prayer, minimally immediately upon arising and just before sleeping, matters to me.

A Bible reading, a meditation, a proverb and a psalm additionally number among my daily spirituality.

Would you read the Church daily-changed Bible Reading or the former in conjunction with your own choice or your own preference only?

How We’ll Live on Mars by Stephen Petranek: Twenty-First Century Acts

The computer crashed afore I continued another component of my comment immediately below.

Perhaps in-flight on-board pastimes entail book-club groups that emphasize Mars fiction and non-fiction.

For example, mightn't a marvelous read be First Men on the Moon, Project Mars, The Exploration of Mars and The Mars Project by Wernher von Braun?

Michael Neufeld, Senior Curator of the Space History Department at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum, wrote a von Braun science fiction-related article, "Mars Project: Wernher von Braun as a Science-Fiction Writer" Jan. 22, 2021, for the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum (

Restoring the Palm House

The unused plants would be sold off.

Restoring the Palm House

Thank you for your comment below, in answer to my previous observation and question.

Community and non-profit organizations and religious entities perhaps consider a fund-raiser -- or a give-away -- for correlating plants no longer components of their building interiors and gardens with new owners.

What happens to plants no longer housed at entities such as Palm House?

How We’ll Live on Mars by Stephen Petranek: Twenty-First Century Acts

The second subheading, Mars-related travel offers agricultural, manufacturing, mining, scientific money-making, advises us in its last paragraph about "four-passenger, 250-day flights to and from Mars" and about venture capital-building through passenger fares.

What would work during those 8-plus months of one-way traveling to warrant money-making passenger fares and to wend such passengers through emotional, mental and physical wellness?

Restoring the Palm House

As far as possible. But some change is unavoidable

Iron Age Coins of British Tribes

The first subheading, The coins in hoards, ends with a second paragraph that advises us that "Two sources indicate many of the coins had no monetary use at all. Because of where they were buried they are thought to have been votive offerings to the gods of Britain."

Is there any indication as to whether coins as offerings or coins for trade inspired the first monies?

Restoring the Palm House

The two sentences above your first in-text image of Palm House advises us that "Over the years the palm house has undergone some refurbishment but now there is a major five year long refurbishment. This will renew the.structure and render the house fit for another couple of centuries."

Are the pre-refurbishment exhibited plants going to remain the same after this refurbishment?

Restoring the Palm House

I imagine that someone will find a use for any that is not broken

Restoring the Palm House

Thank you for your comment below, in answer to my previous observation and question.

The second subheading, Getting on with the job, advises us in its first paragraph of replacing old glass with new glass.

What happens to the old glass?

Halloween Costumes and Masks for Adults

The above paragraphs emphasize comfort, especially against overheating with elaborate costumes and face masks.

Another concern might be slightly inclement weather.

The summer here thus far shows itself as alternately regular downpours and regular sprinkles.

Halloween block parties and trick-or-treats perhaps "weather" gentle sprinkling. A block party possibly would have covered spaces.

But would the mildest sprinkling call for umbrellas or would there be no trick-or-treats at all?

Restoring the Palm House

George was their father. They were all princesses of royal blood.

Restoring the Palm House

The first paragraph to the first subheading, Beginnings, advises us that "The house and grounds had been acquired by his predecessor, George the Second, as a. pleasant home for the royal princesses, situated as it was on a bend in the Thames."

Who are the above-alluded royal princesses? Are they all royal princesses or only direct-line royal princesses?

Laudato Si: reflections on the papal encyclical

Thank you for your comment below, on Apr 20, 2024, in answer to my previous observation and question Apr 19, 2024.

Your answer draws me back many times since its writing. It's so inspiring and so reassuring about the colt on whom Jesus Christ itinerated into Jerusalem as inspired by "the divine presence in Jesus" even as he/she never interacted with anyone previously as ridee to rider.

Might there be any traditions as to the colt's breed, provenance and survival?

God’s Not Dead Movies

Online sources identify God's not dead as sequeling into 3 A light in darkness, 4 We the people, 5 In God we trust. Some sources indicate an upcoming 6 End times.

Might you have seen any one of the afore-mentioned sequels?
