Happy New Year's though I doubt seriously anyone will see this.
For the New Year, I will be going off the Facebook grid for the time being.

experimentation

Since I'm in a season of vocational transition, I thought I would try some experiemtal blogging in addition to the great effort I need to exert in my ongoing quest to find a new viable place of employment.  So, I'm trying to save the template and I made a name change...here's towards a new beginning.
It's never too late or so I've been told...

St. Barnabas Day

I was looking at an online liturgy site and realized that today is the day the Church commemorates St. Barnabas.  I thought of my dear friend, who is a Barnabas to me.
So, I sent him an email with this collect in memory of the saint:

Grant, O God, that we may follow the example of your faithful servant Barnabas, who, seeking not his own renown but the well­being of your Church, gave generously of his life and substance for the relief of the poor and the spread of the Gospel; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

those who trust in the Lord (a psalm of ascents)

125:1 Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion,


which cannot be moved, but abides forever.

2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem,

so the Lord surrounds his people,

from this time forth and forevermore.

3 For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest

on the land allotted to the righteous,

lest the righteous stretch out

their hands to do wrong.

4 Do good, O Lord, to those who are good,

and to those who are upright in their hearts!

5 But those who turn aside to their crooked ways

the Lord will lead away with evildoers!

Peace be upon Israel!
