Sunday Announcements, February 17

Rosemary’s Blessing:

Lord, give me a few friends who will love me for what I am, and keep ever burning before my vagrant steps the kindly light of hope.   And though I come not within sight of the castle of my dreams, teach me to be thankful for life, and for time’s olden memories that are good and sweet.  And may the evening’s twilight find me gentle still.

    Faithful and loving God, you have lavished us with love.

    On our difficult days

    help us to remember that you are a refuge for those who need shelter and a comfort for those who feel empty and poor in spirit.

    On our joyful days,

    fill us with a deep sense of thanksgiving as we experience your everlasting love.

    Help us to share your graciousness, your abundant generosity, with all those who need a touch of generous love. Amen.

    I, God, am in your midst.

    Whoever knows me can never fall.

    Not in the heights, nor the depths, nor in the breadths.

    Bulletin 5 on the Lumbar Stenosis event:

    1. Surgery at Dallas Presby yesterday to take the pinch off of my spinal nerve which sent pain from my derriere all the way to my right foot & arch.
    2. the only pain now comes from the incision.  This was expected to be pretty significant.  Remedy: 2 pain pills.  Result: no pain, but significant dizziness.  I thought I had downed 2 shots of Jack Daniels.
