I am now taking the bus most days and as it doesn't get into the terminal until 9:00 or later,  I changed the opening time from 9:00 to 9:05

With the lane closings that started July 24 I may be even later until they re-open both lanes on I-74. My serviceman has suggested I change the opening time to 9:15.

     I'm glad you found my website. I have an unshakable faith in God and our Lord Jesus Christ. I know that God is with us at all times, even when it's not apparent. I know that Jesus died on the cross for my sins and yours. No sin is too terrible that the blood of Jesus doesn't wash us clean. All you have to do is repent of your sins and ask Jesus to be your Lord & Savior.

My Faith

Today my faith in God and in His Son Jesus is strong, but it hasn't always been like that. I had no idea of what God was really like, or whether He even existed when I was growing up. I came to a saving knowledge and faith in Jesus and Father God when I was 29 years old.  my faith
