Celebrate 2017



Ring out the old, Ring in the new!
 We acknowledge best gifts of 2017: 
 Grateful to SEE
HEAR
TOUCH
and FACE forward
 
with a remarkable circle
 of friends, 


                             of all seasons
 or styles
      
reaching up,  
 
 branching out,                 
   offering gifts, 
  warmth, 

creative hands and
 perspective.

Working to walk 
  
and navigate

 together, agreed:
past, present, and future;
REJOICE in awaiting vision 
and hope in new horizons
 
to CHART a sure path 
GATHER chicks!
Greet our blessings in multiple! 

Cherishing promises of  "perpetual" "generations"

 
Away in a manger, no crib for his bed, the little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head
The stars in the heaven, looked down where He lay. 
The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay. 

 Shhhh....
Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask thee to stay, close by me forever, and love me I pray.
Bless all the dear children in thy tender care, and fit us for heaven to live with thee there. 
 
 
Happy 2018!
