REST IN PEACE
We will gather to celebrate the life of Evelyn Lombardi on Saturday, August 8 at 11:00am, with a reception to follow in Memorial Hall. Please note: there will be incense at this service.
If you would like to help with the reception by providing a simple dessert/appetizer, please contact the office: 845-358-1297/parishoffice@gracechurchnyack.org.
We're also gathering pictures and tributes for a display remembering Evelyn on the bulletin board outside of Memorial Hall -- if you've got a photo/memory you'd like to add, send us a digital file or bring it by the office next week -- we'll scan and you can keep your original.
Readings [We are using Track 2 of the indicated readings.]
COLLECT OF THE DAY Let your continual mercy, O Lord, cleanse and defend your Church; and, because it cannot continue in safety without your help, protect and govern it always by your goodness; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Reflection
Some people, in order to discover God, read books. But there is a great book, the very appearance of created things. Look above you! Look below you! Note it. Read it. God, whom you want to discover, never wrote that book with ink. Instead God set before your eyes the things that God had made. Can you ask for a louder voice than that?
Augustine of Hippo, 5th century
