Closing Words
Susan Manker-SealeMuch of ministry is a benediction
Much of ministry is a benediction --A speaking well of each other and the world --
A speaking well of what we value:
honesty
love
forgiveness
trust
A speaking well of our efforts --
A speaking well of our dreams.
This is how we celebrate life:
Through speaking well of it,
Living the benediction,
and becoming as a word
well-spoken.
