Closings : “The Good Fridays of Our Lives”
Also appropriate as Benedictions
The Good
Fridays of our lives come unbidden and unexpected
Bringing the winter of
despair and the death of dreams and hope
Only love has the power to mend what
has been broken
A love that brings healing to our wounds
A love that
offers hope when we have none
A love that creates unity where there is
conflict
A love that instills new life into lifeless brown husks
May this
great love be in you, upon you, and among you
Now and through all of your
days
