    Acts of the Apostles 15: It is the decision of the Holy Spirit and of us not to place on you any burden beyond these necessities,  namely, to abstain from meat sacrificed to idols, from blood, from meats  of strangled animals, and from unlawful marriage.

    Revelation 21:  The city had no need of sun or moon to shine on it, tor the glory of God gave it light, and its lamp was the Lamb.

    John 13:  Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you.

    and none go hungry or poor; 

    a world where the riches of creation are

    shared, and everyone can enjoy them; 

    a world where different races and cultures

    live in harmony and mutual respect; 

    a world where peace is built with justice,

    and justice is guided by love.

    Give us the inspiration and courage to

    build it, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

    Amen.

    Rosemary's Blessing:

    In Flanders fields the poppies blow
    Between the crosses, row on row,
    That mark our place: and in the sky
    The larks still bravely singing fly
    Scarce heard amid the guns below.

    We are the dead: Short days ago,
    We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
    Loved and were loved: and now we lie
    In Flanders fields!

    Take up our quarrel with the foe!
    To you from falling hands we throw
    The torch, Be yours to bear it high!
    If ye break faith with us who die
    We shall not sleep tho’ poppies blow
    In Flanders Field.

    IN FLANDERS FIELDS
    By Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae

    Composed at the battlefront on May 3, 1915
    during the second battle of Ypres, Belgium
