THIS WEBSITE IS UNDERGOING REVISION. PLEASE CHECK BACK FOR UPDATES! | This year's Theme is "Gratitude
and Acceptance"
"When brimming with gratitude, one's heartbeat must surely
result in outgoing love, the finest emotion that we can ever know. In
times of rough going, the grateful acceptance of my blessings, oft
repeated, can also bring me some of the serenity of which our prayer
speaks." from Language
of the Heart, page 271.
