Is God protecting Fla. at Gov. Crist’s request?
ORLANDO, Fla. — Could it be divine intervention that’s kept Florida safe from hurricanes since Gov. Charlie Crist took office?
Crist said he isn’t trying to take credit, but he told a group of real estate agents Friday that he’s had prayer notes placed in the Western Wall in Jerusalem each year and no major storms have hit Florida.
Crist noted that just before his election in 2006, Florida had been affected by a total of eight hurricanes in 2004 and 2005.
“Do you know the last time it was we had a hurricane in Florida? It’s been awhile. In 2007, I took my first trade mission. Do you know where I went?” said Crist, a Methodist, referring to a trip to Israel.
He then told of going to the Western Wall and inserting a note with a prayer. He said it read, “Dear God, please protect our Florida from storms and other difficulties. Charlie.”
“Time goes on – May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December – no hurricanes,” Crist said. “Thank God.”
More forgo clergy-led funerals for those by secular ‘celebrants’
When Kenneth Kistner, 85, died in February, his wife, Carmen, didn’t call any clergy.
At the Detroit memorial service for the Marine veteran and retired educator, Kistner’s family read a eulogy — one that Kistner himself approved years earlier, when it was drafted by a secular “celebrant” near their retirement home in Largo, Fla.
A growing number of people want to celebrate a loved one’s life at a funeral or memorial service without clergy — sometimes even without God.
And that’s giving rise to the new specialty of pastoral-style secular celebrants who deliver unique personalized eulogies without the rituals of institutional religion.
