Flu Vaccine Frustrations

The province wants 'everyone' to get vaccinated for the flu every year.  They are running out of the vaccine.

 

If they want 'everyone' to be vaccinated, why don't they order enough?

 

H1N1 is going around this year, and the number of young people who have died is small, but it's abnormal.  There are also more than usual in intensive care because of it.

Moderator Mardi Tindal's blog: Meaning and mortality

Welcome to my blog—a place to reflect with me on God’s abundant healing of soul, community, and creation. I hope you will visit often and be part of this sacred conversation.

Doug and I have decided to save the earth and the church (not to mention our own sanity) the cost of commuting to Toronto from our home in Brantford during my term as Moderator. Today we are immersed in the task of coming to terms with a houseful of stuff that cannot possibly fit into our new home—a two-bedroom condo apartment. (I’ve just slipped away for a moment to take an unauthorized break from work!)
 
As I sort and pack and consider the significance of each item, I think about words from Matthew 6:19: “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust consume and where thieves break in and steal.” Easier said than done…yet some of the best biblical advice for coming to terms with meaning and mortality.

Positive Thinking and H1N1

I know that posters are following the threads on Health and Aging, but I would like to post this in religion and Faith Forum.

We are all doing what we think best for our families but there is still fear, and turmoil over the flu and the flu shot.

 

I wonder what your thoughts are on a more positive attitude on the flu threat. Can a positive outlook help? Can faith help?

 

Do you have an opinion?

H1N1 support thread

There have been a number of threads started already about the H1N1 virus, whether to immunize, is it a conspiracy.......

 

This is not a thread to argue, but rather to support one another about concerns regarding H1N1.

 

Specialmom has shared on another thread her worries about specialson.

 

Chemgal has shared her concerns about her health.

 

Pommum has shared her concerns about her soon-to-be-born grandbaby.

Need a fun thing to put on label

So...we are buying little hand-spritzer bottles for in the pews.

We thought we would put a label on them, and I am tasked with coming up with something.

 

The usage is for people to use them prior to passing the peace, if they do wish to pass the peace.  We also are going to do education in the bulletins regarding other ways to share your welcome both before & during church, ie traditional namaste.

 

So, you creative folks..

 

You have 4 lines to share a message to folks....what would you put?
