RB066 The Blessing of Snow

  Ranger Bill begins our work week this Monday 8/10/2026, is a wintry blast:

RB066 The Blessing of Snow
The Big Prairie region is suffering from a long, hard drought. The farmers there are ready give up and quit farming. The area hasn't seen a significant rain or a lasting snowfall in several years. No one can believe that a deep, lasting snowfall is coming let alone a dangerous one - with blessings. Bill gets Big Brute ready to plow in case of heavy snow.

RB131 One Mile Down

  Our RANGER BILL for Saturday afternoon, 8/8/26, is: 

RB131 One Mile Down

Bill and Gray Wolf try to find Lt. Garnet Greentree, missing for 40 years in the Andes Mountains in Peru. The only clue to the missing man's whereabouts is a gold medallion that Bill was given while working for the Peruvian government, stamped with the letters "GG". Bill and Gray Wolf passed the medallion on to the Greentree family who desperately hope to find Garnet.

This is one of those stories that could have had a second episode. Garnet, now 76 years old, leaves Peru and reunites with his family. He could share his story of faith lost then found. He might then return to Peru to his faithful servant and friend Sacre-topel (unsure how to spell this) and the Aztec tribes to witness Christ to them.

RB094 Rogue Elephant


Long lost elephant Mahmud the Mighty attacks homes and farms. Circus owner Baxter B. Bixby offers to catch this animal now gone wild. Ranger Bill isn’t convinced that Mr. Bixby is qualified to capture any animal in the mountains, let alone a crazed elephant. Bixby has a plan to capture the beast, but Bill still isn’t sure it will work.

Nature Corner/Storybook Room - Oxygen

  Nature Corner/Storybook Room for Saturday morning, August 8, 2026

Take a deep breath before Uncle Bob Devine's guest comes in. Greet Olivia Oxygen today. Oxygen makes up about one fifth of the air we breathe. Nitrogen makes up most of the remaining four fifths. That mixture allows all life to live and thrive. 

Let's let Olivia tell us much more about how God has provided for our health and well-being in this way.
