[Oe List ...] With Love, Hope, Peace and Joy at the Holidays

[Priscilla Wilson]

Margaret,
One of the gifts of the life we have had is that the circle of prayer  
is so broad and deep. Few have experienced that as we have been  
fortunate to have known.
Dec. 29 particularly is a day you will be in the prayers of  
many...including myself. May this journey be one that makes sense to  
you...and that you find enlightening.
