A big, “flowery” THANK YOU to Chris Ross for planting the lovely marigolds in the Garden Chapel – they not only look beautiful, but will keep the deer at bay!

A ministry of the Society of St. John the Evangelist
BROTHER GIVE US A WORD - Kingdom
Eventually, says Jesus, everything will be out in the open; everyone will know how things really are. The secret motives and intentions of human hearts will be revealed. That which is true and right will stand, and that which is false and evil will fall away. Love and Truth will triumph in the end, so don’t be afraid, even when things seem to turn against you.
-Br. David Vryhof
