Hospitality and welcome! Yes that again!





Dear Family of Love, 

Happy Keeping the Faith Friday Fearlessly Without Fretting! Boy what a day! This morning started out with needing to call housekeeping to get the toilet fixed which they did and then getting up early to attend Morning Prayer, have breakfast, and go to Salt Lake City International Airport to be part of the Hospitality and Welcoming Committee. This is one of the most rewarding things we at the start of Triennial because it helps our sisters who are attending Triennial get off on the right start from the very beginning when they arrive. After getting back from the airport I had to decorate and get ready for tonight's Province Banquet. Tonight's banquet was bittersweet because tonight was my last night of being Province President but I'm ok. It was fun to see my wonderful family this evening! That brings me again to the importance of showing hospitality and welcome. It is one of the most important things we as human beings will ever do. If I haven't had  the opportunity to welcome all of you who are new to Walk With Me On Our Journey and extend a warm and sustaining welcome to all of you who have been regular readers.  Tonight! I invite all of you to sit back and relax and do your own breathing exercises  and listen to this:

Ralph Vaughan Williams-Fantasia on Greensleeves

Feel God's presence creating a space of welcome and hospitality for you in God's gentle arms.

Feel God's loving presence enfolding us and our family members.

Feel God's gentle tap on the shoulder guiding you and your life path.

Feel God's welcoming presence as we pray.

God we pray for an end violence of any kind and that peace may prevail upon earth.

God we pray for an end to all forms of abuse.

God we pray for an end to all hatred that we may sew the seeds of love.

God we pray for an end to all those who wish to do  us or our family members from harm.

God we pray that love may be the key to help conquer the world's ills and that we may show how loving we may be to our brothers and sisters who do not understand us.

God we pray that we may practice good conservation of the World natural resources.

God we pray for all of our family members who are grieving the loss of loved ones who are animal and human.

God we pray for all  who are ill that they may be healed and given  courage during their illnesses.

God we pray for all who are transitioning into Life Eternal and those who have entered the Thin Places today.

God give us courage to live and follow you and what you teach us each and every day.

God we pray for all these yet un-named prayers that we may have the courage to speak and pray them aloud.

God accept these our prayers in Jesus, name 

++++
Good Night Dear Family! I love you and Give God Thanks for you this night and always! Remember tomorrow is Self-Car Saturday! Time to do something for yourself!



With love and blessings!

Sara
