2012 Moment of Grace
Early
morning, sunrise. Pere Kesner stepped
out of his room onto the veranda. I was
already there looking out at the beautiful morning. Let’s say Morning Prayer together. We gather our prayer books and bibles,
English and Kreyol, and the English/French Book of Common Prayer. It’s quiet.
The noisy activity of the day hasn’t yet begun. We pray together, sometimes in English,
sometimes in French. We read from the
Kreyol Bib La. We sing together hymns in
the French Hymnal. A bird in the tree
joins in. A close moment of grace. God is present.
