    Russell P. Foreman Jr.

    Russ is a 73 year old, Louisiana native. He is a Texas resident for the past 31 years, and a retired insurance executive. He has participated in 37 CONSECUTIVE years of retreats at MANRESA in Convent, LA, which is run by the Jesuits (Society of Jesus). He is a self described transplanted Cajun. Russ credits his Creator for survival of six stint implants, three strokes, a triple heart bypass, pacemaker implant and a mild heart attack. He is ever grateful for the time Almighty God has afforded him on this earth (including this books completion). Russ joined the Bill Bryan American Legion West McKinney (TX) Post 110 as the CHARTER CHAPLAIN MEMBER. In 2010, subsequent to his dance performing days, Russ published a book on tap dancing entitled: THE SHIM SHAM (NATIONAL ANTHEM OF TAP): A BRIEF HISTORY AND DANCE NOTES. He published a second edition in 2015. After prayerful consideration pursuant to the Holy Spirits prompting, Russs detailed findings are laid out herein for your study. May the Holy Spirit be your guide as you PRAY THE BIBLE through Prayerful Meditation of the Rosary. ABOUT THE ILLUSTRATOR Some background on the religious order to which Illustrator Sister Catherine Martin belongs. Facts contained in a brochure compiled by the Congregation of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, provide the following biblical background to the congregation: Mount Carmel is the biblical site where the prophet Elijah battled the 450 prophets of Baal in a public spiritual contest which led to their defeat (1 Kings 18:19-40). Mount Carmel can be found on the Mediterranean coast of Israel overlooking the city of Haifa, which rises 1742 feet above sea level. In Hebrew Carmel means the garden, for it is known to be covered with blooming flowers, flowering shrubs, and fragrant herbs. The title of Mary as Our Lady of Mount Carmel can be traced back to hermits who lived on the renowned and blessed mountain at the time of the Old Testament. This austere and pious community prayed in expectation of the coming of the Virgin-Mother whom they believed would bring salvation to humankind. They believed that, like prophet Elijah, who ascended the mountain of Carmel to pray to God who went up to Carmel, crouched down to the earth, and put his head between his knees (1Kings 18:42), for the salvation of Israel which was suffering a tremendous drought during this time. Elijah persevered in prayers and many times sent his servant to the mountain top to see any sign of foreboding rain. Elijah did not waiver in his confidence in God; on the seventh attempt of sending his servant he found that There is a cloud as small as a mans hand rising from the sea (1Kings 18:44). Soon after, a drenching rain fell upon the parched land and the people of Israel were saved. Sister Catherine is a life long educator and artist for the Congregation. I thank God for her faith, friendship, generosity in time and effort, and insight as expressed in the illustrations and covers for this book.
