Life was great in Castle Rock

Readers,

Here are some shots I took while in Castle Rock this weekend. Thanks to the Rev. Bob Sinclair of St. Paul Lutheran Church and Lucas Myers, the congregation's youth director, for welcoming me and accommodating my needs as I worked to get the word out about the extraordinary Community Shepherds Program.

Most of all, I'd like to thank young Cole Forney for his excellent photography of the Community Shepherds at work. Cole, you have tremendous potential in photojournalism, in my opinion. Give me a call sometime, 206-498-0920.

Top to bottom are some scenes around Castle Rock, volunteer Jill Lair, and one of the young workers dismounting from the trampoline after the week was over. 

I'd call Castle Rock an awfully good place to raise kids. It's a close-knit community where you roll down your window several times as you drive through town to update everyone on your current status. St. Paul is a very family-oriented congregation at the heart of Castle Rock. At times during my visit, it seemed as if every young person in town was a Community Shepherd.
