February Crumbs

We worked a MMAP project at the US Center for World Missions in Pasadena, CA, in February. The US Center has many independant ministries all facilitating missions in some way. The information they gather and develope is available to anyone who is planning to go to another country to share the Gospel. The men remodeled two small auditoriums, among other things.

On Ladies Day Out we toured the Tournament House. The first floor has been preserved and the top floor houses Rose Parade/Tournament memorabilia. The 1939 Queen’s crown was designed to be taken apart; made into a stickpin, bracelet & brooches and divided among the queen and her princesses. Click the picture to see some interesting styles.

We had chocolate covered Pat on Ladies Day Out. Pat Thornton experienced a chocolate explosion when she went to get dessert. She pushed down to top her ice cream and must have hit an air bubble. She had chocolate sauce from head to toe, but she was a great sport and smiled through it all.

One Saturday we all toured the Santa Anita Race Track and had breakfast at Clocker’s Corner. As a Dick Francis fan and horse lover I found it fascinating. Here Lois Stahley, Mo Meline and Pat Thornton are introduced to the horse that played Seabiscuit in the movie.

Part of the tour at Santa Anita took us through the Jockey’s changing room where we saw the silks stored. They made us wait while they cleared the room, and we were cautioned not to linger.

Friday the 15th many of the active and retired MMAPers in southern California met at Loma Linda for lunch. We had about 45 or 50, I would guess. The two on the left are Larry Bernauer and Lois Stahley.

We were invited to a Luau put on by the Micronesian’s at the US Center. The performers were members of youth groups from Pasadena and San Diego. All the music and dances expressed praise to God. It was a little cold so they kept their street clothes on under the traditional dress which was a little comical, but their sincerity was nothing to laugh about.
