Meet Wayne Johnson

Posted on by

A few weeks ago, I received a call from a fellow in Macon named Wayne Johnson. He wanted to talk about the 2nd District Congressional race. He said that a mutual friend encouraged him to talk with me.

I am accustomed to getting inquiries about that race. I always try to talk the interested parties out of running and have a sanity check of questions for them to ask of themselves before taking on such a task.

I explained to Wayne that I was not running because Crisp county is now in the 8th district and I have no intention of running in another district where I cannot even vote for myself.

Conversation with Jack Roche – WWII Veteran

Posted on by

This week we recognize and remember December 7, 1941, the attack on Pearl Harbor. That attack brought the United States into World War II. I want to introduce you to a couple of men who served our nation in World War II.

Earlier this summer I video recorded a conversation with Bob Bright and Jack Roche from Cordele. These two men served our nation in the Army Air Corp in the European theater of World War II.

I got to know these two men in the daily prayer time at Christ Episcopal Church. They faithfully show up every morning to pray for the needs in our community, state, and nation. We should never underestimate the power of these prayers that go to God’s throne of grace every morning.

Every day, the number decreases of these men and women who served during this critical time in world history. It is important to hear their recollections and be always reminded of the cost of freedom.

This video conversation focuses on Jack Roche who served as a Bombardier in the 15th Air Force. You will be glad that you invested a few minutes to meet Jack Roche.
