Rosemary's Blessing:  

May the sun shine bright on your joyous days

And the rain refresh you through peaceful nights

May summer show God’s wondrous ways

And prepare you for heaven’s great delights

And till we meet there

May the God of summertime

Hold you in the palm of her hand

1 Corinthians 1: God is faithful, and by him you were called to fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

Luke 17:  And one of them,  realizing he had been healed, returned glorifying God in a loud voice; and he fell at the feet of Jesus and thanked him.  He was a Samaritan.

 

 

2 Chronicles 36: Whoever, therefore, among you belongs to any part of his people, let him go up, and may his God be with him!”

Ephesians 2: For by grace you have been saved through faith, and this is not from you; it is the gift of God; . . .

John 3: For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him.

 

Some of our Community members  are in need of special prayers:

 

Jan Keszler  is in Chicago with her Mom who will be 101 on 6/31.  Her Mom  is now in Hospice Care and Jan asks for prayers for her and the family.

 

John Cade's Mother-in-Law, Kaliope, who is 96, fell and broke 2 vertebrae and is in the hospital.

 

Tom and Teresa Quinn were on a  river cruise on the Danube and the second day Tom tested positive for Covid.  They are now in a hotel room in Vienna and Tom is quarantined for 5 days and can't leave the room.  Teresa just hopes she doesn't get it.

 

Happy New Year, Everybody‍‍ ‍‍

 

"And all shall be well and                                               

 All manner of thing shall be well ‍‍ ‍‍ ‍‍ ‍‍

When the tongues of flames are in-folded
 Into the crowned knot of fire

 And the fire and the rose are one."

T.S. Eliot
