 EASTERTIDE HOPE KINDNESS AND COMPASSION 

Have you noticed the symbols of Hope that many of our church members have shared with us?

  (You can see this moving and inspirational display in the garden level/ elevator entrance to our church). 

 Our hope project continues through Eastertide to Pentecost! With your help we will be making a prayer flag. 

 This is a coffee hour project ! You will be able to decorate a flag for the prayer flag with your hopeful messages of kindness and compassion. 

 To get you thinking about what you might wish to share here are a few quotes i have found about hope: 

  “ Hope is not about how things turn out, but how we see things.” Fr Greg Boyle

  “ Hope is an echo, hope ties itself, yonder , yonder”.    Carl Sandburg.

 “We can breathe a sigh of relief as long as there is a “yonder”. Fr Greg Boyle 

“ We need hope like we need air” . Brene Brown 

 “ Hope keeps us focused on the good things that are possible.” Anonymous 

 We will be offering our Hope Prayer Flag on Pentecost.

 If you can’t make it to a coffee hour, give the church office a call and we will get a square of fabric for you to decorate and share your hope on the square. It then will be collected and added to the hope prayer flag. 

 This project is being brought to you by the Deacons and the Historical Preservation Committee.
