When you have a llama for a friend, you have a friend for life. Having a llama for a friend is not as easy as you may think. Join Amelia as she befriends a lonely llama who will take her on the adventure of her life. Amelia will have a little help from younger sister Addy and her pet, Goldendoodle Ruby, trying to sneak her new llama friend into her home. Would your parents let you have a llama as a house pet? If you invite a llama into your home as a pet, you better have plenty of apples on hand. This llama was raised in an apple orchard and loved to eat apples.
Hello, my name is Michael Wuehler. I am an ordained United Methodist minister, certified grief counselor, hospice chaplain, and bereavement coordinator. I have over thirty years of ministry experience, including seven years as a denominational leader. Writing has been part of my ministry for my entire career. I wrote sermons, newsletters, worship services, weekly devotionals, and articles for our Minnesota Annual Conference. As a hospice chaplain, I wrote content for workshops I lead on grief support, spiritual care for caretakers, compassion fatigue, support for medical staff, and a booklet on hospice services and resources. I served at Christ United Methodist Church before retirement from church ministry. Christ Church was the largest UMC church in Minnesota. I preached at four different worship services throughout the week. I spoke at our annual conference gathering to audiences of over 1,000 people on several occasions. I led grief support groups and divorce groups for more than ten years. I am a confident and dynamic preacher and caring group leader. I am seminary trained in the Biblical languages of Hebrew and Greek. I have also read through the Bible each year since 1973 as part of my spiritual discipline.
