I thought a poem from Mary Oliver felt just right for today. “The Gift” is from her last collection of new poems published in 2015 before her death in 2019. 

A change is upon us today, not just the move from Stay-at-Home to Level 4 Restrictions that will happen at midnight but the weather is predicted to be churning and stirring. Please keep in mind the community who will gather at St. Andrew’s today and tonight amidst the bluster.

In Peace,

Christine
