Our Expected Guest
There is excitement in the air!

There is excitement in the air!

The phone rings. The baby cries.
The school child asks for answers.
The mail arrives. The bills appear.
The laundry piles. The cooking waits.

'When life confronts us with its difficulties, we, the People of God, can turn to Mary ...'

Thank you for all the wonderful things
You have made:
The whole world, all the people
My home, my school, my friends, my pets.

Be my guide.
Help me to be aware
Of all that lies before, behind and around me.

Autumn, in all its beauty and decline, reminds us that this is a time to harvest our blessings in a spirit of thanksgiving, as well as a time for letting go and preparing for the season ahead.
