All are invited to come to the table--His Table--and be nourished, strengthened, encouraged, accepted and loved as He does us. The door is open, welcome to the Episcopal Church USA.

Of God we ask one favour...
Of God we ask one favour,
That we may be forgiven –
For what, he is presumed to know –
The Crime, from us, is hidden –
Immured the whole of Life
Within a magic Prison
We reprimand the Happiness
That too competes with Heaven.
Emily Dickinson

Thank you for this. I've been thinking about Dickinson lately, for some reason.

Thank you. An unfamiliar one from Emily for me.
Jan, it was also unfamiliar to me, and it is like finding a treasure when I come across one like this. Thank you for visiting today.
