BULLETIN INFO FOR 4 NOVEMBER

PRAYER OF THE WEEK:

 Keeper of the universe, Creator of life, Guardian of our deaths: one and all, we have raged against the heavens, wasted our substance and the gifts given, feared our mortality. Avoiding timelessness, we have become enslaved to time. Careless with means, we go corrupt toward ends. Strangers before death, we are not at home with life. Therefore, great Lord, recall us to the majesties beyond our words, and turn us again to handle with awe the lively world we did not earn; through Jesus Christ, who has dominion over death. Amen.
