Blessings and Benedictions
Each Sunday, a Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) pastor offers a blessing and benediction for the week ahead. We hope that these will inspire you and nurture your faith.

Sacred twilight, gracefully giving way to the rising of the morning sun,
Unfolding the gift of a new day, revealing the glory in all creatures.
Awakening the soul, sounding the eternal, rekindling hope.
