Graduation

Tomorrow is official graduation day though the festivities start at 5pm today.  Daniel's Mom and Sis, Margery and Bev, are here. 

Here is your invitation:

The highlight of the week I believe will be the Commencement Eucharist today at 5pm.  (Not the actual graduation tomorrow that tends to be long and boring.)  The Eucharist will be webcast.  Join us for all or part of it if you can.  Here are instructions for logging on:

Go to http://eds.acrobat.com/demo
and LOG IN as GUEST.
You will be prompted to type your name.

A new window will open enabling you to see the Chapel and participate at a distance.

The person who arranged this suggests that you log in at 4:45 for the 5pm service.  If you do, you'll get to see a crowd of people looking for seats.  I suggest that you may want to login about 5:20 or so to catch Bishop Charles' sermon.  He is one of the country's finest preachers.  He too is leaving EDS (for San Francisco); I expect it will be a fine sermon. 

Here is the order of worship:

Song of  Praise:  H379 "God is Love"
Wisdom 7:26-8:1
Psalm 13 9:1-17
I Peter 2:2-10
Sequence Hymn:  Will You Come and Follow Me
Gospel: Mark 6:7-13
Offertory Hymn: I, the Lord of Sea and Sky
Sanctus: Iona
Sermon
Communion Hymn: Peace Before Us

My friend Mary who graduated last year just called to tell me what a miracle it is that I am alive and able to graduate. Thank you for the love and prayers that made this graduation possible.
