Your sister sends you greetings.
So does my son Mark.
Strong families , many meetings.
Keep us from the lonely dark.

So the Apostles had families.
They like us were flesh and blood.
Friends they had and no doubt enemies.
Like us they were in the ebb and flow of life’s flood.

They were not just saints.
They knew fear and doubt.
No doubt they were grateful and had complaints.
They succeeded and once were  put to rout.

God , they once denied.
Then triumphantly affirmed.

…..

They had families
Sons, brothers and sisters
Yet they’re apostles
