That's right! It's Pancake Day! Many of you are aware that I
was born, raised, and lived more than 25 years in Liberal, Kansas!
Each year there is a friendly little competition between Liberal,
Kansas and Olney, England. The ladies run down the streets of each
town flipping pancakes in a race against one another. This tradition
has been going on for more than 60 years now. It is still the only
race of its kind on the planet. Sweet action! Though, Pancake Day
itself is celebrated around the world. Check out "Pancake Day" on
Google if you would like to see an international perspective of the
day.
So, enjoy a pancake or two today. I sure will be! What better
way to "live large", right? If you have an IHOP restaurant near you,
that would be a great place to enjoy a free stack of pancakes. They
hook every customer up with a free stack every year! Moreover, check
out Pancake Day to see all of the activities going on in
Liberal, Kansas today and across the pond!
Thanks for your prayers each day! We are having lots of
opportunities to share about Jesus!

Hey Mr. Tim. Oddly enough, every Tuesday at the Sivyer house is "pancake Tuesday" so today, without even knowing, I ate pancakes on Pancake Day. I just thought that was kinda cool, so I shared it with you. Have a fun and safe time in Costa Rica and Panama.

Hey Louderback, that is pretty cool. I was in Atlanta Tuesday in a big office building and there were bottles of pancake syrup sitting around everywhere. I wasn't sure why so I asked. They told me they were eating panckes for "Fat Tuesday ". Little did we know it was for International Pancake Day :). Keep living large, God bless you.
