About Our Theme. . . 
____________________________________________________ 
The most important source of peace for us is God, who is the spirit of love in our hearts and in our world.  No matter what happens to us, we know that "All shall be well,"  because God is with us. 
  
A Special Poem for You. . .

IN THE GARDEN 
 
In The Garden,  
Walk soft upon the grass, shoes discarded,  
As seeds dance in the breeze, 
Their airy feather parachutes  
Depositing precious cargo to seedbeds unknown. 
 
Walk in the garden.  
And like the dancing, floating seeds, 
Let your destination be unknown- 
Sit on this bench . . . now that one . . . 
End up where you may! 
 
Put down your book, and grow silent. 
Listen to clear, echoed bird-song 
In adjacent woodland cathedral, 
Its cavernous, ceiling of leaf and branch towering  
Projecting peace and birdsong for all who walk 
In the Garden.
