Morning prayer

Your Palmer Editor has discovered The Urban Abbey, an online monastic community that has a presence on Twitter and Facebook. If you follow them on Twitter (@TheUrbanAbbey), you can participate in Morning and Evening Prayer in real time. While being in the physical company of other believers is the best possible experience, it is a wonderful way to take 10 minutes for prayer and reflection. Below is the verse that I needed today:

Be still in the presence of the LORD, and wait patiently for him to act. Psalm 37:7

If you want to join but have not yet figured out the Twitter thing, send a comment and we're happy to help.

In other news, you may have noticed yesterday that our beautiful north doors are back. You also may have noticed that we were without air conditioning in the Nave. The rain we so desperately needed came complete with thunder and lightening and the newly repaired system was damaged in the process. Your Palmer Editor has no updates at the moment but will keep you posted as repairs progress. Prayers of thanksgiving for the repairman who returned from his vacation yesterday to do the work are certainly in order!

Today at Palmer, don't forget the worship service with communion at noon, and contemplative prayer at 5:30.

Come and be fed.
