Oh look, Chicken Thursday!

Thanks to our friend Marcia L. for today's chicken picture. Here is her note about it:

Hi Tim – as I was reading Cybersalt today I realized I have a chicken pic I could send you! The attached is a snap of a painting done in Rosebud, Alberta to advertise the play, Chickens, by Lucia Frangione, performed there in 2014. It’s a hilarious and poignant play about the struggles on a chicken farm. All the characters are chickens, by the way. Never laughed so hard!

Also, thanks to Peg M. for letting me know that someone has been spoofing emails from me and spreading links to buy Cannabis Oil (CBD Oil.) Email spoofing is when someone sends out an email that looks like it is from someone else but it is not. If you get an email from me selling CBD you can know it's not from me because:
- My server security is set up so that nobody else can send to this list through the approved Cybersalt server. If you look at the headers of your email you will see it does not come from Cybersalt.
- Due to the pandemic, my supply of CBD Oil has been cut off.

Finally, you may have noticed that today is issue #4538 while Sunday's issue was #4536. It turns out I accidentally repeated issue numbers back in, get this, November! I repeated #4503 on November 17 and 21. So some day if you are playing trivial pursuit the answer is "4537."

Sunday Greetings everyone!

Here's another video with a great message for us in these times:

Rev. James Snyder thinks grandchildren are great and he understands the role that Grandfathers play in that. You can read, "The World Needs More Grandfathers" at:

Palm Sunday Greetings everyone!

As we enter into Holy Week, most of us do so unable to gather together with others. Of course that is nothing new for many of Jesus' followers who have ill health or live in areas of great persecution toward Jesus's followers, but for many of us this Easter is going to be very different. Let's make the most of this opportunity, forced upon us by dark times, to connect in a fresh way with what no virus can take away from those who follow Jesus. Truly, everything we will miss about this Easter has nothing to do with Easter.

On this Palm Sunday, 2020, all glory, laud and honour to you Redeemer King!

Rev. James Snyder is prone to sneezing and is very aware of the attention that draws to him. You can read, "Have Nose, Will Sneeze" at:

Oh look, Chicken Thursday!

Thanks to Richard T. for today's chicken picture. It was obviously taken before the days of social distancing - step back from the chicken, Richard!!!

The pandemic has made life harder for all, including those for whom life was already extremely hard. Last week we were contacted by a refugee who can no longer even work illegally in the country he has fled to because it is now on lock-down for weeks. He is actually a refugee we have been able to find a church who is trying to sponsor him to be resettled, but that process is going to be delayed even longer because interviews are on hold too. Thanks to your support through the Body of Christ Connection, we were able to help him in this desperate time.
