The sign urges us to “shop local”, and I agree. For me shopping was a social occasion to meet and interact with workers in the stores (we knew them) and with friends. We’re a small town. We know one another. Oh how I miss that. This morning I pray with Mattie, five year old in our church. Each night she prays, "Lord, take away this old germ! So we can go back and see everyone!” Amen Mattie, I’m with you🙏🙏!
