I and everyone was quite moved, never expecting or asking for return payment.  The board has suggested that we place this amount into a money market. We will use the interest and save the principle for emergencies. Thanks first to our member and secondly to you all for your non-stop generosity!

Rosemary's Blessing of The Week:

“Father and Mother of all:

We give thanks for food and remember the hungry,

We give thanks for health and remember the sick,

We give thanks for friends and remember the friendless,

We give thanks for freedom and remember the enslaved.

May our giving thanks stir us to service, that our blessings may be shared with others. Amen
