Today is a special day, O God. So many events are happening that are exciting to me. I am attending my first Diocesan Convention in a new diocese while it is also the first fall Steeplechase in the new venue in Aiken. May both of these be celebrations of what is wonderful about this time of year. I am grateful that we are able to gather once again and truly enjoy one another’s company. May we never take that for granted and be thankful for each time we get to join with those we love. Let your Blessings rained down upon us O God of All Creation. Amen
