Dear Friends,
Here in Gene's big blue chair, sipping peppermint
tea, I read the valentines he has given me during
our thirty-seven years of marriage. I remember the
twinkle in his blue eyes as he handed me my funny
valentine, filled with words of love. Then the
thought appears:
What would God say in His valentine to you and to
me? Maybe it would go something like this:
“My Beloved,
Often You have heard the words: 'God loves you'.
I want you to know that this is true;
You have not chosen Me; I have chosen you.
I love you with an ever-lasting love.
I am the Lord, your God Who loved you into being.
I have carved you in the palm of My hand.
The moment you were conceived, it is I Who gave
you life.
I have called you by name and you are Mine.
I live deep within your heart – We are one.
I know when you sit or when you stand;
when you come and when you go.
In your joy and in your sorrow, I am always with
you.
There is no greater love than this;
I have laid down My Life for you.
I am Love and I love you - Your God”

Lost and Found
In the last six months, we have had 3 lost rings
turned into the rectory. If you lost a ring,
please call the rectory at 589-2800 and leave
your phone number and a description of the
ring.
Marble Repair
In the next few weeks the marble wall behind the altar
will be repaired. This repair will take about five days.
The marble will be regrouted, which will eliminate the
large gaps between the marble panels. In addition, the 3
marble panels will be replaced with marble that matches
the other marble on the wall. The cost of this repair and
replacement is $7, 000. Thanks to all of you for your
generous support that allows us to do this.
