"Cowardice asks the question...is it safe? Expediency asks the question...is it politic? Vanity asks the question...is it popular? But conscience asks the question...is it right? And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but one must take it because it is right." ~Dr. Martin Luther King

All is not lost

 Saw the Mayor at the  Home  show.  Work still going on at the Church. Digging and turning over to make sure no smoldering embers  remain to burst  again into  flames be moving out of town. flames.

Front wall still stands, Stained glass windows appear undamaged. Doors  are  still in place and stairs leading from and to them.

It's too early to say what might be. All is not lost.

The  church  owns three houses behind.  A new tenant was due to move in .That won't happen now.
Church  affairs will carry on.

The community will rally.

There will be new beginnings.

It's Easter Sunday next week,

I don't think they can save the front although it sounds like a great idea now. But certainly there can be a new beginning - as one the the congregation pointed out, " Things can be replaced, there were no serious injuries "

It was pathetic to see the former Mayor working the room at.the Rise and Shine breakfast.She has never set foot in the United Church during that event.This is when politicians either shine or in her case tarnish.

She is seriously into denial.

I see she made sure to get herself into Jim Coyle's article in the Toronto Star, along with a couple of other opportunistic self-promoters.

What happened to the career in writing and/or the investigation business ?
