Announcements, Community Update

 

Jo & Ro 1

Dearest Community Members,

Rosemary, even Aviana, & I have really, really so missed all of you.   We hope and pray that you are all healthy and safe.

Should you need anything from the stores and cannot or feel hesitant about going out, please let me & Rosemary know.  People from the community have already volunteered to shop for any of you.  

 

We will keep you posted about next Sunday.   Live stream the celebration (Mike)?  Let John present his Matthew studies?

 

Thanks to all you members of the board who unanimously voted to take this Sunday off, even though I was looking for a loop hole. 

 

Here is why we go to Oaxaca.  The view outside our second floor window.  A paradise of tropical flowers.  

 

Oaxaca

Happy 11th Anniversary, Fred and Martha

    Rosemary’s Blessing

    Come, O Dancing God,

    Spirit of Life and Love,

    of Beauty and Diversity,

    stir up my soul,

    bathe me in your light,

    and unleash my own spirit

    that I may dance with you

    and be light for those around me

    and reflect your love to all that I meet this week.

    Rosemary's Blessing

    May those who have died be at peace and fulfilment,

    and may we who are living be filled always with gratefulness for each day, 

    thankful for relationships, our five senses, our health, and our spirit.

    And may we leave this world a better place for our having been here.

    Rosemary's Blessing of  The Week:  

    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.
