nice party, where is everybody?
Thank you for correcting me on the date of Calvin’s birthday. I apparently misread some correspondence with Zondervan, and thinking that Calvin’s birthday was June 10 rather than July 10, worked feverishly over the weekend to compose a Koinonia blogpost … Continue reading
