Proofs, if applicable, are sent to your email on file in 1-2 business days. You'll want to use a valid email address that you check regularly for ordering and be prepared to approve on time. We'll hold the proof for 72 hours (with reminders) before sending to print as is. Generally, 1 initial proof and 2 rounds of minor revisions are included in your purchase price. Additional edits or requests may incur additional costs.
Yes. The listed price reflects the design shown. For customizations to designs shown that are more than just changing names, dates, etc., please email us ahead of time to be sure we can accommodate your request, especially if your request includes adding more text than what is shown on the sample, like adding/removing/changing graphics. We'll advise you at that time if we can accommodate your request and if extra design fees will apply.
FONT CHANGES: All of our items are sold with the fonts shown for the base price. For guest books or stamps, customization to fonts is $5. Font changes are not offered on other items.
Yes! We love our international customers and ship worldwide. Please be sure to check both the processing and transit times on your chosen item to be fully aware of how long your item may take to ship if it's non-personalized, to make first once approved and then ship if it's personalized, and then also how long your chosen transit time will take. Especially if you are ordering for your wedding, you'll want to make sure your item will arrive on time. We offer a few different types of international shipping; full information is in our shop policies under our shipping policy for all options. Note that international customers are responsible for any customs/duty tax or related fees for importing items.
All of our listings include details on the processing times (the amount of time it takes to make your item once it's sent to print or your proof is approved) for those items. You'll also get an estimate of the ship date displayed when checking out through the Etsy system, and this assigned date will also be on your order receipt. Orders that need to be approved before making will move fastest if you are able to approve your proof on time; client response time does factor in to how long it takes to receive your item. If proof approval is delayed, we may not be able to ship by the date assigned. We do offer expedited shipping options. These expedited transit times take effect *after* your item has been made to order and shipped.
The window for cancellation is one hour post purchase. We cannot cancel your order once we've started production or once you've approved a proof of the order. We also cannot cancel an order once we've sent a proof to you.
Personalized and/or custom items are not eligible for return/refund. We are not able to take returns due to misspellings or grammatical errors in your approved proof regardless of where they originate. Your signed proof approval indicates that you have reviewed and are accepting the wording and layout shown to be used for the final print.
In the rare event that a personalized or custom order arrives damaged, we will replace it, but we MUST receive photos of the damaged item and its packaging first.
• RUSH: If yours is a rush order we always appreciate a heads up first to be sure we can accommodate your request. We will advise you of our typical turnaround times on the item you wish to purchase and what type of shipping will be necessary for it to reach you by your desired date. Please note, there may be times we can NOT accommodate a rush order due to our workload.
• CUSTOM: Occasionally we can take on custom design for personalized items. Please contact us ahead of time to be sure we can accommodate your request and discuss your options so we can set up a custom order just for you. During the height of wedding season, we may be overbooked or unable to take custom orders due to time constraints.
Please double and triple-check your shipping address *prior* to checking out to be sure it is accurate and correct and where you wish your order to be sent. For custom orders especially, we cannot change your address once it has gone to production. This is the case even if the order has not yet shipped out. We encourage you to review your address during the checkout process and update it at that stage before your payment is complete. You can update your address under You-->Account or do it during the checkout process as well.
We are not responsible for an order shipping to an outdated address because it was not updated during purchase. If an order is returned to us due to an outdated address, the buyer will be responsible for new postage.

- assures the integrity of its services.
As a member of IFIA, we are committed to developing and implementing a compliance program which covers our entire organization. The principles and rules of this program are contained in the current "Code of Ethics" which reflects all IFIA Compliance Code requirements.
All employees, managers and executives are responsible for making compliance a vital part of our business process and future success.

We respect differences, care about others and do not discriminate against others on race, ethnic origin, age, sex or religious and political beliefs.
Social and environmental responsibility
The growing commitment of companies to society creates new challenges to combine profitability and accountability.
An awareness of these new risks creates new requirements and new activities and has an effect at both organizational and management levels of the company.
Bureau Veritas as a whole, and each employee individually, takes account of the impact of their actions on the community, people and business.

Unknown Ship, from Rotterdam to Salem, Massachusetts
This is part two of a series of Thanksgiving blogs for my ancestors who DIDN'T come on the Mayflower. Today I'm thinking about my 3x great grandfather Peter Hoogerzeil. We don't know the name of the ship he took to arrive in America, and we don't know the date, but the other details of his immigration are so interesting my cousin wants to write them into a historical romance. I'll let you be the judge!
The Hoogerzeil family not only has an interesting surname, but the origins of the name are interesting, too. In the Netherland, this family tree goes back to the 1500's with names that are patronymics. Arijen Bruynen, born in 1631 had a son named Bruin Arijens, born in 1661, and his son should have been named Ocker Bruins, but instead he took the name "Hoogersijl" which means "High Sails" because he was a sea captain. From that moment on he created the Hoogerzeil family tree. Everyone in the world with the name Hoogerzeil or Hogerseil or its variations is a cousin.
There is a long line of sea captains in this family, and in my lineage they were whaling sea captains. In Europe, the whaling center was the Netherlands, like New England, especially New Bedford, for the United States. They fished for the whales off Greenland, and I have some fascinating journals and ships logs of their adventures off the coast of Europe I'll have to save for another blog. In this lineage, Captain Simon Hogerseijl of Nieuwpoort, Holland had a son named Peter, born in 1803. Being the younger son, for some reason he was unsatisfied with life in the Netherlands, and in the 1820s he stowed aboard a ship full of hemp out of Rotterdam, bound for the rope works in Salem, Massachusetts.
Either Peter was very lucky, or very charismatic, however he was not punished for being a stowaway on board Captain Josiah Stone's ship. Of all things, he ended up marrying Captain Stone's youngest daughter, Eunice, on 30 December 1828 in Beverly, Massachusetts! Peter is listed as a caulker and engraver on the early census records, and on his children's birth records he is also listed as a mariner. At the Phillip's Library in Salem I found him under the ship's registers of the brig "Pioneer" in 1826 bound for Havana, the brig "Jones" in 1828 bound for Matanazas, and aboard the ship "Clay" in 1829 for the Pacific Ocean. I know the family also visited Holland on and off over the next fifty years, and many letters survived from both sides.
Like my Mayflower ancestors, the Hoogerzeil family thrived in Massachusetts. Peter and Eunice had six children, who all married and left many, many descendants. In this family there have been factory workers, inventors, teachers, musicians and draftsmen- a full range of occupations across the board, just like the people I meet at Mayflower meetings. And like the Mayflower passengers, they left Holland and found their place in America, starting in Massachusetts. Happy Thanksgiving!
See my blog posting on 2 September 2009 "The Value of Posting Brick Walls on Genealogical Bulletin Boards" for more on the Hoogerzeil family.

Aretha Franklin still won't disclose what ails her. But the Queen of Soul said last month's secret surgery has "resolved" her health woes.
"There are a lot of people who will talk about anything, as long as there is somebody listening," the 68-year-old "Respect" singer told JET magazine on Thursday. "But I am not one of those people. That's not Aretha."
Franklin said she would not "even deal" with addressing reports she suffered from pancreatic cancer.
U.S. & World
"I don't have to talk about my health with anybody other than my doctors," she told JET. "The problem has been resolved."
Franklin did explain she first sought help after experiencing "a very hard pain in my side."
She said she doggedly underwent tests including a colonoscopy that kept showing nothing was wrong -- until a CAT-scan proved otherwise.
"If there is anything happening with you that is uncommon and something that you know should not be happening, go to your doctor," Franklin advised. Be determined to find out what is going on."
Franklin has been recuperating at her suburban Detroit home since undergoing what she called "highly successful" surgery on Dec. 2.

Tickets to see the documentary "This Is It," featuring footage of Michael Jackson's rehersals for his 50-show series in London, go on sale today.
"This Is It" presents the best of over 100 hours of footage from Jackson's rehearsals for his show at London's 02 Arena, which was set to start three weeks after the star's death.
A sneak preview of the film will be shown simultaneously in 15 cities around the world on October 27, leading to some odd start times--the movie will begin at midnight in New York and at 4 a.m. in London.
Tickets can be purchased at any major ticketing website, as well as www.thisisit-movie.com, the film's website. Only a limited number of tickets will be available because the documentary is set to run for just two weeks, starting on the official start date, October 28.

New book: Santa Ana resident Al Chavez recently published a book about immigration.
With a title that roughly translates from Spanish as "12 million and we're screwed."
Chavez self-published the book through XLibris.
"It talks about the journey it takes to get here," said Chavez, 51, who said he came to this country from La Alberca, Michoacan, illegally at age 13 and remained undocumented for about 13 years after that. "Undocumented immigrants are living in the shadows, and they just want to become part of society."
Chavez advocates immigration reform that will help people who are here illegally obtain legal status.

In Reply to: Let's get cracking! posted by Smokey Stover on November 19, 2004
: : I just said this to some students and, thanks to the PF, found myself asking,"What is the origin of this phrase?"
: : Any ideas? SR
: I can't help you with the origin of the phrase, but here's what the OED says. "b. Colloq. phr. to get cracking: to get started; to 'get a move on'. Cf. GET v. 32b. Also with noun or pronoun (or other object) interposed between get and cracking. 1937 PARTRIDGE Dict. Slang 324/1 Get cracking, to begin work.
: c. to get going: to begin; to start talking, acting, etc., vigorously; to get into full swing; to 'get a move on'. Also trans., to start; to render (someone) excited, talkative, etc. See also to get cracking s.v. CRACK v. 22b.
: 1897 O. W. HOLMES Pollock-Holmes Lett. I. 77 He is really fine when he gets going on the Church of England." SS
I imagine it's related to the expresions, "To crack on more sail" or "to crack on more speed", maybe even "the crack of dawn". However, I draw the line short of "Cracking good toast, Grommet"!

ATHENS — Two days before Greece's international creditors return to Athens to begin talks on keeping the nearly bankrupt country solvent, the new coalition government on Saturday highlighted the main points it plans to renegotiate with lenders, aiming to revoke certain taxes, suspend planned layoffs in the bloated public sector and extend by two years the deadline for imposing additional austerity measures.
A joint policy statement issued by Prime Minister Antonis Samaras, a conservative, and his coalition partners — Evangelos Venizelos, chief of the socialist Pasok party, and Fotis Kouvelis, leader of the moderate Democratic Left party — summarized the new government's chief aim as "tackling the crisis, opening the road to growth and revising the terms of the loan deal without putting at risk the country's European course or its continued presence in the euro zone."
The initiative is aimed at easing public opposition to two years of austerity, which led to big vote tallies in last Sunday's elections for parties opposed to the $170 billion bailout and obliged the more established parties to forge a tenuous coalition. But some of the goals set out in the document are unlikely to please Greece's creditors, the European Commission, the European Central Bank and the International Monetary Fund, whose officials have repeatedly said in recent weeks that there was only marginal room for maneuvering, with an extension of the deadline for meeting fiscal deficit targets the only likely concession.
The chief priorities highlighted in the policy statement — the product of several days of tense negotiations between the coalition parties — include the extension of Greece's "fiscal adjustment period" by at least two years, to 2016, so that fiscal targets can be met without further cuts to salaries and pensions.
The blueprint also aims to revoke changes to collective bargaining agreements in the private sector and to ease the burden on taxpayers by ensuring that they pay no more than 25 percent of their income in overdue obligations.Continue reading the main story
Party leaders also want to cancel planned layoffs in the public sector — the three lenders had called for 150,000 jobs to go by 2015 — and to reduce the value-added tax on food to 13 percent from 23 percent.
Higher taxes, lower wages and soaring unemployment, which has hit 22 percent, have crippled Greek households and raised public support for anti-bailout parties like the leftist Syriza, which came in second in last week's elections on a pledge to tear up the loan deal, and which dismissed the coalition's efforts to win over the public as a "publicity stunt," saying that it will ultimately honor the debt deal.
The development came amid health emergencies within the fragile government. Vassilis Rapanos, 65, the finance minister-designate and chairman of Greece's largest lender, National Bank, remained hospitalized on Saturday after being admitted on Friday with stomach pains and nausea. State television quoted doctors as saying on Saturday that Mr. Rapanos was stable, attributing his symptoms to extreme fatigue or a possible virus.
Meanwhile, Mr. Samaras, 61, underwent surgery on Saturday for a detached retina that was diagnosed on Friday. State television said he was recovering but would stay in the hospital through Sunday. It was not clear when Mr. Rapanos would be sworn in; he did not attend a swearing-in ceremony with the remaining cabinet on Thursday.
It was equally unclear whether Mr. Samaras would be fit to travel to a crucial European Union leaders' summit meeting in Brussels on Thursday, where Greece's loan deal was expected to dominate the agenda.Continue reading the main story

Puig's performance this spring too good to dismiss
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- The Dodgers didn't develop 15 Rookies of the Year by sending their phenoms to the Minor Leagues for more seasoning, which brings them to the dilemma of Yasiel Puig, who is making management think long and hard about whether he's ready for the Big Show.
Puig has only 95 professional plate appearances after sitting out the 2011 season, but in his first Spring Training, he's set the Cactus League on fire with a .500 batting average and .804 slugging percentage.
It continued in Tuesday's 7-1 win, when he outdid fellow Cuban left fielder Yoenis Cespedes of the A's by going 4-for-4 with a homer, and he would have had a cycle if he hustled out of the box in the fifth inning, when Cespedes instead threw him out trying for a double.
Management won't say what chance Puig has of making the Opening Day roster, but when a rookie gets four at-bats in a game 12 days before the season starts, somebody will take a serious look.
Puig has a huge hurdle to clear, as the outfield is being manned by former All-Stars Carl Crawford, Matt Kemp and Andre Ethier, but he has been too good to ignore or dismiss.
"It's rare in a Spring Training game that everybody will stop what they're doing to see someone hit," said general manager Ned Colletti, comparing Puig's buzz with that created when Mark McGwire and Jose Canseco arrived with Oakland. "That's what happens. The crowd, scouts, the front office, they drop whatever they're doing."
The club spent $42 million on the unproven Puig off workouts last summer, even though other clubs laughed, so somebody apparently knew what they were doing.
"He hasn't disappointed anybody," Colletti said.
Yet after watching Crawford participate in cutoff and relay drills on Tuesday, Colletti is convinced Crawford's elbow will allow him to be the starting left fielder on Opening Day. Bringing up Puig, 22, to sit on the bench is not an option.
Puig realizes what he's doing isn't normal, and he thanked God for making it possible. He also said, through an interpreter, that he will understand if he is sent down.
"If it's Single-A, Double-A, Triple-A, I'll continue to play hard," Puig said. "Wherever God sends me, I'm going to [play] really hard."
Manager Don Mattingly, who only days ago said that Puig needs to play every day in the Minor Leagues, backpedaled only slightly after Puig's latest display, but he explained why he's reluctant to rush Puig to the Major Leagues.
"At this point he's creating expectations he can't live up to," Mattingly said. "Nobody can."
Mattingly said there isn't a whole lot not to like about Puig, except for the lack of hustle on his second single on Tuesday, which Puig admitted to Mattingly was a mistake. It cost Puig a double, and in the process a cycle, as he also homered, tripled, singled and stole a base.
Those are the mistakes that have old-timers believing Puig should start the season in the Minors. Colletti adds the reminder that no matter what Puig is doing, he's doing it in Spring Training.
"We've all seen it. Opening Day hits, and everything's different," Colletti said. "It's faster. It's real. It's the big leagues. You can't replicate that here."

Twins Beat Baltimore With Solid Pitching
FORT MYERS, Fla. (AP) — Mike Pelfrey struck out four in three scoreless innings and the Minnesota Twins beat the Baltimore Orioles 4-1 on Tuesday.
Pelfrey allowed just two hits and first baseman Joe Mauer went 2 for 3 with an RBI, raising his spring average to .306.
Bud Norris, in line to be Baltimore's fourth or fifth starter, gave up two earned runs and seven hits in 5 1-3 innings.
Twins manager Ron Gardenhire used three potential starting pitchers against the Orioles a day after a rainout. Kyle Gibson pitched three shutout innings, striking out one and giving up two hits. Scott Diamond gave up one run off two hits while striking out one in three innings.
Gibson and Diamond are competing for the Twins' fifth rotation spot.

Following the meeting, they issued the following statement:
"The authorities and IMF staff have made further progress in their discussions in Washington this weekend. The authorities are firmly committed to addressing Egypt's economic and financial challenges with the objective of restoring sustained and socially-balanced growth, and they are already taking encouraging actions in this direction. Work will continue with the objective of reaching agreement on an IMF Stand-By Arrangement to support the authorities' national economic program in the coming weeks."

The G.R. Herberger Business School at St. Cloud State University is one of the top business colleges in the United States. Whether you're a budding CEO or just really have a thing for cardinal red and black, St. Cloud State is the place to be. With approximately 17,000 students enrolled, SCSU is the second-largest university in Minnesota, so you'll have no problem finding a future business partner (fellow hacky sack buddy) at this impressive institution. St. Cloud State University offers more than 200 academic programs and 250 great student organizations—just think of how fun it'd be to join Break Dancing Club and get down with meteorology and film studies majors. With all that SCSU offers, you'll be so proud to be a Husky, you'll be inviting Blizzard (the school mascot) over for pizza.
The library in the Miller Center might be a great place to do some research, but it's not really fit for lounging around in sweatpants with a bag of pork rinds. Lucky for you, there are great apartments available off campus so you can avoid getting horrible looks from librarians. There are a few multi-unit complexes around SCSU's campus, some offering amenities like pools, spas, and fitness centers. If the freedom to choose your own furniture and daily spa treatments sounds preferable to RAs and doors decorated with themed nametags, start looking for an apartment ASAP. 58% of SCSU students surveyed by College Prowler said off-campus housing is "totally worth it." Be sure to check out our college life guide for help dealing with roommates who really do nothing but sit around in sweatpants, eating.
The folks at St. Cloud State University encourage you to "Think of the world as your living laboratory." If running around town unleashing pent-up energy sounds like a good experiment, you'll be a regular mad scientist at SCSU. Take a ride on the Metro and prove your hypothesis that "a college student in motion will stay in motion no matter how many chicken wings he consumes or how hard he dances." Head over to MC's Dugout Bar and Grill and chase down a week's worth of ramen noodles with a Hairy Buffalo. Afterwards, stop by Rum Runners for a night of comedy that doesn't involve dipping your roommate's hand in a bowl of water. One thing's for sure: there's plenty of fun "experiments" to be had around SCSU's campus.

Radio 4 Opening Announcement:
BBC Radio 4. And time now for Sunday Worship which today comes from St Martin-in-the-Fields in London. The design for the building was so influential in eighteenth-century America that several hundred churches in the New World were modelled on it and today countless Americans make their way to it as home from home. In honour of these links with the United States, today's service reflects on the second inauguration of President Barak Obama. The vicar of St Martin's, the Reverend Dr Sam Wells, leads the service which begins with the hymn, Amazing Grace. (32")
Amazing Grace
Sam Wells - Introduction/Prayer
Good morning and welcome to St Martin-in-the-Fields. Today and tomorrow, in Washington DC, Barack Obama will take the oath of office for his second term as President of the United States, rather poignantly on Martin Luther King Day itself. President Obama carries the expectations and good will of so many people across the world, but also the burden of discouraged hopes and broken hearts, from the impasse on Capitol Hill to the massacre at Sandy Hook, Connecticut.
148 years ago Abraham Lincoln took the oath for his second term as American President. The Civil War between the northern and southern states was nearly over, but already by that day in 1865, a million people had died in the conflict. Lincoln knew it would take amazing grace to release America not just from the slavery of bonded labour, but also from the slavery of profound social divisions and bitterness. Today we look back at the chaos that Lincoln faced and the grace that he sought, and in his words and his vision find wisdom and strength for the challenges facing America and our world. We've all heard of the American Dream – that everyone, regardless of background, can make their life better or richer or fuller. The challenge for President Obama and for us, as it was for Lincoln, is to learn to dream again.
Let us pray.
God of each new dawn, you have anointed prophets and priests and leaders of your people. Look with mercy on the suffering of your children in economic distress, in the aftermath of violence, and in the dearth of hope. Raise us up this morning as a people who look to your new day, that we may each find our vocation in your kingdom – and, in your service, perfect freedom. Amen.
The St Martin-in-the-Fields High School Gospel Choir express the hope of this new day in the spiritual, 'My Lord, what a morning.'

Dan Kaszeta worked for 12 years in the White House. Here he reads from the Wisdom of Solomon, chapter 3.
Dan Kaszeta - Reading
The souls of the righteous are in the hand of God, and no torment will ever touch them. In the eyes of the foolish they seemed to have died, and their departure was thought to be a disaster, and their going from us to be their destruction; but they are at peace. For though in the sight of others they were punished, their hope is full of immortality. Having been disciplined a little, they will receive great good, because God tested them and found them worthy of himself; like gold in the furnace he tried them, and like a sacrificial burnt-offering he accepted them.

The Choir of St Martin-in-the-Fields sing verses from Psalm 19.
Choir - Psalm 19:7-13 (sung)
Katherine Hedderly - Matthew 18:2-7
A reading from Matthew chapter 18. Jesus said, 'Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever becomes humble like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me. If any of you put a stumbling block before one of these little ones who believe in me, it would be better for you if a great millstone were fastened around your neck and you were drowned in the depth of the sea. Woe to the world because of stumbling blocks! Occasions for stumbling are bound to come, but woe to the one by whom the stumbling block comes!'
Sam Wells
The people who founded the United States had in many cases fled from oppression elsewhere. They saw the new nation as having a unique destiny in the world. That vision of freedom wasn't always consistent, as slaves and Native Americans knew all too well. This hymn balances the sense of America's special vocation with a recognition of God's call to all the people of the earth.
This is my song/Finlandia/Lloyd Stone and Georgia Harkness/3 verses
Sam Wells - Introduction to Lincoln
The release of Stephen Spielberg's film has brought the figure of Abraham Lincoln back to the centre of international consciousness. With the Civil War all but won, Lincoln reflected in his second inaugural address on the mystery of divine providence. He wondered why God had let the war come, and had let it rage so terribly; and how both sides could pray to the same God. And yet he had no doubt about the evils of the slavery that had precipitated the war. Roger Shaljean now reads from this remarkably short address, recently described as 'one of the most overwhelming pieces of political prose ever crafted in any language.' Here Lincoln speaks, as he himself puts it, 'with malice toward none, with charity for all.'
Roger Shaljean - Excerpt from Lincoln's Second Inaugural
Both [sides in the war] read the same Bible and pray to the same God, and each invokes His aid against the other. … The prayers of both could not be answered. That of neither has been answered fully. The Almighty has His own purposes. "Woe unto the world because of offenses; for it must needs be that offenses come, but woe to that man by whom the offense cometh." If we shall suppose that American slavery is one of those offenses which, in the providence of God, must needs come, but which, having continued through His appointed time, He now wills to remove, and that He gives to both North and South this terrible war as the woe due to those by whom the offense came, shall we discern therein any departure from those divine attributes which the believers in a living God always ascribe to Him?
Fondly do we hope, fervently do we pray, that this mighty scourge of war may speedily pass away. Yet, if God wills that it continue until all the wealth piled by the bondsman's two hundred and fifty years of unrequited toil shall be sunk, and until every drop of blood drawn with the lash shall be paid by another drawn with the sword, as was said three thousand years ago, so still it must be said "the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether."

Mark McIntosh Sermon
At the heart of Lincoln's Second Inaugural address, often thought of as a kind of American testament, is the passage from Matthew's Gospel we've just heard read. There Jesus counsels his agonizing and contentious disciples. He holds before them, and before us all, the image of children, these little ones, whose hopefulness and vulnerability we can hardly bear to look upon sometimes (shaming us by their trust in us as they do) – these little ones, who are, says Jesus, most especially at home in the Kingdom of God. With tenderness and a strong grieving love, Jesus adds, yes, offences and terrible things may come in this world. But woe to those who bring them about, woe to those who cause even one of these little ones to stumble, to lose their way, lose faith, lose hope. 'Woe unto the world because of offences!' echoes Lincoln. And the greatest offence would be if, because of the evils that have come, goodness should lose heart, or that the very aspiration for goodness and compassion should come to seem in vain.
What can cause us to stumble most deeply is unclarity about our own faith, about the true foundations of our belief in God. Sometimes our faith and hope are shaken either because God seems apparently unwilling to answer our prayers or those of others. Sometimes because we are scandalized by the dreadful thought that we and others may be praying to the same God for diametrically opposed things. As Lincoln noted with sorrow about his fellow citizens in the North and the South: 'Both read the same Bible, and pray to the same God; and each invokes His aid against the other. . . . The prayers of both could not be answered; that of neither has been answered fully. The Almighty has his own purposes.'
In the mouth of anyone but Lincoln 'the Almighty has his own purposes' could seem like an atrocious dodge. But if anything might be bequeathed to his grateful nation down the years, and indeed to President Obama on his inauguration day, it is surely Lincoln's indomitable hope. Lincoln's hope was that beyond the brittle certainties of this group or that, and beyond the appalling evidence of our capacity for inhumanity, there shines a great goodness – a goodness mysteriously working out its purposes in this world. Our faith in God's goodness cannot be shaken when our own idols of certitude are wrenched from us. Nor need we lose faith even when God's purposes seem too large for us to hold within the current reach of our desire.
We can see that this was indeed Lincoln's meaning from words he wrote three years before his Second Inaugural, in a letter to the American Quaker Eliza Gurney: 'The purposes of the Almighty are perfect, and must prevail,' wrote the President, 'though we erring mortals may fail to accurately perceive them in advance. We hoped for a happy termination of this terrible war long before this; but God knows best, and has ruled otherwise. We shall yet acknowledge His wisdom and our own error therein. Meanwhile, we must work earnestly in the best light He gives us, trusting that so working still conduces to the great ends He ordains. Surely He intends some great good to follow this mighty convulsion, which no mortal could make, and no mortal could stay.'
Jesus drew the eyes of his disciples to the children in their midst. Here was a faith that, though vulnerable in its trust, was yet dauntless and endlessly renewing in its great openness. Precisely because children trust in a goodness far greater than the measure of our own minds, these little ones leave themselves open to the greater good that God always intends. They show us how to make ourselves the more available to work with countless others – though we may disagree with them about much – for sake of a goodness that far exceeds the more limited views of us all.
So we may wish to ask that some share in this trusting openness to God's goodness might be granted to President Obama and to all people. This is, of course, a risky sort of prayer, a dangerous thing to ask for, and we might well not recognize the answer God gives to each of us. In the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus asked that he might be spared the cup of his suffering and death. It seemed to him, as so often to most of us, that his prayer was left terribly unanswered. But the Father's answer to his beloved child, to this little one whose trust and hope he would never allow to stumble, was not a longer life-span but the resurrection of Easter Day. Not less than Jesus asked for, but infinitely more. And that is often, it seems, how God does answer prayer: not by giving us the smaller thing we can see far enough to want at any given time in our own lives or in the history of the world, but by leading us onwards into that greater goodness which is the true source of all our desires, that goodness which is simply God. And Christ himself is the sure foundation that no child, nowhere on God's good earth, need ever hold this hope in vain.
May we all be given grace so to live that no deeds of ours may ever cause one of God's children to lose this hope. By grace may we each in some small way be a sign and pledge of that greater goodness which is the hope of all the human family.

In 1873 Chicago lawyer Horatio Spafford sent his wife and four daughters to England for a holiday and went New York to wave them off. Nine days later he received a telegram from his wife with the unimaginably horrifying words, 'Saved alone.' He got the next boat to England, and when the ship passed the point of the tragedy that had claimed his four daughters and 222 others, he went to his cabin and wrote this extraordinary hymn.

Sam Wells - Prayers
Let us pray.
God of incarnation, when we struggle with ourselves, with one another, and with you, you come to meet us in your Son. Be close today to all who feel like they are drowning amid the storms of life. Show your face to those who feel they can strive no further. And restore them in your glory.
Lord, in your mercy,
Hear our Prayer.
God of the cross, look with mercy on the American people today. Bless President Obama, the Congress, and all who seek justice, prosperity, understanding and freedom for all in the land. Encourage those who have no taste of the wealth of the nation, any who live in prison or in ghetto or in daily fear, and all who have more to give than society wants to receive. Turn their sadness into joy. Lord, in your mercy,
Hear our Prayer.
God of resurrection, you give us not less than we ask, but more. Take our failures and turn them into wisdom; take our regrets and turn them into insight; take our hurts and turn them into compassion. Inaugurate in us a pledge of allegiance to your kingdom, your gospel, and your grace, that we may look back on this day, and name it as the day we learnt to dream again. Amen.
In this Week of Prayer for Christian Unity, we ask God's forgiveness, seek God's kingdom, and look for the day when we shall gather together around God's table in glory, in the words Jesus taught us.
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive them that trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.

The anthem has been specially written for this service, to coincide with President Obama's second inauguration. It's called 'Learning to Dream Again.'

God the Holy Trinity give you a faith of innocence and trust, yet dauntless and endlessly renewing openness. And may the blessing of God almighty, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, be upon you and remain with you now and always. Amen.

Send a link to a friend
We are halfway through the week. As we read in the
Gospel today during Morning Prayer, things are
getting tense for Jesus.
On Monday after Palm Sunday, he went to the Temple,
chasing the commercial vendors out of the Temple
On Tuesday, Jesus was teaching again.
Unsurprisingly, the parables proved problematic for
the theologians and professors of his day.
Today, Wednesday, Jesus offers his longest and final
parable in the Gospel of Mark. His teaching is
truth: he tells the story about how God longs for
all of us— for you and for me— to be planted in the
vineyard. Jesus was sent so all would know that they
are welcomed.
1Then he began to speak to them in parables. "A
man planted a vineyard, put a fence around it, dug a
pit for the wine press, and built a watchtower; then
he leased it to tenants and went to another country.
2When the season came, he sent a slave to the
tenants to collect from them his share of the
produce of the vineyard. 3But they seized him, and
beat him, and sent him away empty-handed. 4And again
he sent another slave to them; this one they beat
over the head and insulted. 5Then he sent another
and that one they killed. And so it was with many
others; some they beat, and others they killed. 6He
had still one other, a beloved son. Finally he sent
him to them, saying, 'They will respect my son.'
7But those tenants said to one another, 'This is the
heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance
will be ours.' 8So they seized him, killed him, and
threw him out of the vineyard.9What then will the
owner of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy
the tenants and give the vineyard to others. 10Have
you not read this scripture: 'The stone that the
builders rejected has become the cornerstone;11this
was the Lord's doing, and it is amazing in our
Mark told stories so they could easily be
understood. Deciphering the allegories of this
particularly narrative is relatively simple: God is
the vineyard owner; the tenants are the present
religious leaders; the beloved Son is Jesus; and the
earlier servants are the prophets, including
(probably) John the Baptist. Framing the passion
narrative, this narrative ultimately explains: why
God sent Jesus and the prophets before him: [an
invite us to turn around, to work toward justice and
peace]; what will happen to Jesus [to be falsely
accused and to be put on death row for a crime he
didn't do]; who will bring this evil about
[pastors—respected clergy who pound pulpits on
Sundays]; and what the failure of this last chance
to repent will mean [to remain hateful will only
prevent the presence of God to be noticed by our
Jesus was hospitable.
Perhaps, too hospitable for some.
The shadow of the cross is growing larger by the
Thursday will come and we'll say, "Not just my feet,
but my head as well."
Then, it will be Friday. Do I need to say anymore
about Friday?
so, let's not rush.
Instead, let's use this time to attend to the text and listen to the
questions it asks of us.
Let us listen to the text, to hear God's voice calling us to return
to the way of Love.
Let us tune into this call to inclusion: a call to rid ourselves of
dictating doctrines that determine who is "in" and who is "out."
Note about the picture: This picture is of the quote in
Rev. Bruce Allison's book Links. If you would like
a digital version of this beloved classic, please email
the church.
Let us hear the text not as one about a God who takes pleasure in
drenching tenants with destruction, but rather, gain a glimpse of a
God who wants everyone in the vineyard.
May we, as articulated by the Reverend Bruce Allison, come to know
on this Wednesday of Holy Week, as we stand in the vineyard and
nearing the end of our travels, that "Our deepest joy and our
greatest satisfaction comes from what unites us to all people, the
love of God for us and for everyone. And it is that, too, which
reveals more and more of who we are meant to be."
Amidst the procession to the gallows of Good Friday, love continues
to pave the way. Soon we'll receive a new commandment. Soon we will
be asked, "Whose feet are you going to wash?"
Soon, we'll be sent to love until the end…
[Adam Quine, First Presbyterian Church of Lincoln]

Join author David Harb as he leads a discussion at
1 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 22 at the Bluffton Branch Library — large meeting room — on topics within his book, "West Meets East: A Primer on the Israeli/Palestinian Conflict."
Although Israel and Palestine are very small pieces of land, they have received more global attention over the past sixty years than perhaps any other part of the globe.
Claims on mutual recognition, borders, security, water rights, control of Jerusalem, Israeli settlements, Palestinian freedom of movement and legalities concerning refugees feed their enduring, ongoing and explosive dispute. West Meets East intends to validate both claims with the purpose of creating peace so that both people can live side by side in harmony with one another.
"Many attempts had been made in the past to create a lasting peace. This is the appropriate time in history to bring both parties to the table with the intentions of bringing together a comprehensive peace agreement for both sides," the author said.
This discussion is free and open to the public; registration is not necessary. If you have questions, please contact the Bluffton Branch Library Reference Desk at 843-255-6503.
