A mother who is praying for you daily. Walking on the sunny side of the street. A full tank of gas. Those who don't foist their religious experiences on you. Periwinkles. Looking back and being content to leave the past in the past. Deliverance from a seizing incapacitating sickness. The pattern of shadows on a tree-lined road. Fresh French rolls purchased still warm from the bakery. Dissension diffused. The delight of watching woods fill up with snow. Praise singers. Those who have daddy hearts, even if they don't sire children. All of the dots connecting into a pattern you recognize.

The Parish of Salt Spring has graciously agreed to host a Gulf Islands Day Camp on July 23rd through 27th. The Gulf Islands Camp was moved from the original location on Pender due to complications arising from hosting on the smaller island. Many thanks to Rev. Stetson, lay leaders, and volunteers from Salt Spring Island for your support and willingness to host what is sure to be an epic week.
