Kingfisher Cross — Murray Pura

LIFE HAPPENS   LOVE HAPPENS   GRACE HAPPENSThere is a great mix of lives here - the Schlabach Amish, the English, immigration from Scandinavia, Europe and Asia. No different than the rest of the world, really. In all, Kingfisher Cross has just under five thousand souls, each of them unique, as souls everywhere are unique, all in their own unique family worlds and realities. Life happens. Love happens. Grace happens. Miracles happen. Except, I think, there is more peace, more kindness, more heart in Kingfisher Cross. From the beginning, people have found blessing here. They still do, regardless of the challenges they face and whatever sufferings they may endure. Closer to the Great Lakes, the waters remain turbulent even after so many thousands of years. But nearer to Kingfisher Cross, they are smooth and calm, if swift. They do not strike fear or awe in the heart. They grant a conflicted soul serenity. clarity and strength.
