‘May we have the courage to take the step into the unknown that beckons us;Trust that a richer life awaits us there,That we will lose nothing but that which has already died:
Feel the deeper knowing in us sure of all that is about to be born beyond the pale frames where we stayed confined, not realising how such vacant endurance was bleaching our soul’s desire’
Bless us, God of our JourneyBless us, God of our Journey
Thank you!Thank you!
