Go in peace.
Make peace with change that is constant.
Be at peace with the cost of this Way—for to choose another would be costlier.
When you have questions, walk in faith. When the path is stony, walk in the footsteps of others. When the hill’s too steep, go slowly, be at ease.
And may the evolving, enabling, inspiring God of our forebears and contemporaries hold the map and enlighten your way
this day and always—Amen
words of spirit and faith
