The Family
Posted by
The family is a seminary of the church and commonwealth. It is like a beehive in which is the stock and out of which are sent many swarms of bees. In families are all sorts of people bred and brought up, and out of families are they sent into the Church and Commonwealth… A family is a little church, and a little commonwealth, whereby trial maybe made of such as are fit for any place of authority…It is a school, wherein the first grounds of government and submission are learned.
—William Gouge, “Domestical Duties.”

Death is Not Dying
Rachel Barkey (nee Sawer) went home to her Lord on July 2, 2009 at 37 years of age. Rachel is survived by her husband Neil and her children Quinn and Kate, parents Ben and Cathy Sawer, brother David (Johanna) Sawer and sister Andrea Sawer.
But for Rachel the essence of life was found in her relationship with God through Jesus. And that's why Rachel was convinced that death is not dying.
