• A Summer Blessing

  Fri 23 Jul 2021

  May the road rise up to meet you.
  May the wind always be at your back.
  May the sun shine warm upon your face,

  and rains fall soft upon your fields.
  And until we meet again,
  May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

   

  Wishing all our families a lovely summer.
