PRAYING FOR MY BELOVED CRC MEMBERS & CALVIN COLLEGE et al to NOT ACQUIESCE TO FAR-LEFT LIBERALISM TO TRY TO BE ‘COOL’:

JESUS SAID: “I pray not that thou should take them out of the world, but that thou should keep them from the evil. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.

As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.

And for their sakes ..."

video: INTERESTING NEWS STORY BY CHANNEL 8 re the "BUTTERBALL MANSION" ESTATE SALE (12/5/17)

ALL of the PETERS KIDS (from the 1st & 2nd marriages, that's 5 + 3) ATTENDED GRAND RAPIDS CHRISTIAN HIGH and CALVIN COLLEGE(except one of the late daughters, Brenda, who was developmantally disabled) , and attended CHRISTIAN REFORMED CHURCHES in Grand Rapids growing up (and at least 4 of the grandchildren are also Eagle-Knights ) 

Mark was the only son of the late Leo Peters , and inherited the Butterball Farms business (also based in Grand Rapids). They continue to manufacture "fancy butter" , a tiny version of which is provided with the hotcakes at McDonalds around the USA. 

Butterball actually began in Evanston Ilinois, and then moved to West Michigan. The older daughters from Leo Peters 1st marriage (to Helen, who died at a young age) helped their father as he began experimenting with making butter beautiful in their apartment home near Lake Michigan in the Chicago area. Once it began to sell well, Leo moved to Grand Rapids, bought the mansion, established a factory on Buchanan Avenue, and the rest, as they say, is history.*

Mark recently sold the "Butterball Mansion" and apparently left much of the estate to the new owner, who apparently is selling it off , and re-selling the mansion ?

JESUS SAVES !!

*albeit, while Leo Peters was a smart businessman, there are those family members who contend he was NOT a good person in terms of relationships & family, which, when all is said and done, is most important , right ? At least if it is properly aligned with a relationship with Jesus Christ: Father -Son- &- Holy Spirit. Being a successful business person and making lots of money means very little in the end if the bigger picture of one's life  does not do something positive in the eyes of our Lord God. Leo attended LaGrave Avenue CRC. He also sent all his kids to the Christian schools, and he, himself, also attended Calvin College. For some, however, the Christian schools, are just a good "private" option. 

How about any of you at Calvin or Christian High? Are you there because of CHRIST or because it's a good , private, option  to public education ? I HOPE AND PRAY you're there for the RIGHT REASONS! Yes, I went there too (Calvin & GRCH) and now I am in southern California. I KNOW how easy it is to go thru the motions of church and Christian education. But at some point you have to make a SERIOUS CRITICAL INTROSPECTIVE DECISION to truly follow Christ and put your MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS... ; don't just go thru the motions ! GOD BLESS YOU. GOD BLESS US. AND LET US BLESS GOD
