Staying Safe and Staying Connected
Good Morning Saint Stephen's Church,
Alleluia. Christ is risen.
The Lord is risen indeed. Alleluia.
Today's Prayer
For stewardship of creation
O merciful Creator, your hand is open wide to satisfy the
needs of every living creature: Make us always thankful for
your loving providence; and grant that we, remembering the
account that we must one day give, may be faithful stewards
of your good gifts; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who with
you and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns, one God, for ever
and ever. Amen.
– Book of Common Prayer, p. 259
Today is the last of the three Rogation Days, which occur on the Episcopal calendar the Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday immediately before Ascension Day. Rogation Days are days set aside to observe a change in the seasons, and are connected to the spring planting. They are days of prayer, and formerly also of fasting, instituted by the Church to seek God's protection from calamities and to obtain a good and bountiful harvest.
Rogation is an English form of the Latin rogatio, which comes from the verb rogare, which means "to ask." The primary purpose of the Rogation Days is to ask God to bless the fields and the parish (the geographic area) that they fall in. In England, the vicar "beat the bounds" of the parish, processing around the fields reciting psalms and the litany. Today the Rogation Days can help us focus on creation and remind us that the Church liturgical calendar is tied to the changing seasons.
From Our Prayers of the People
For the special needs and concerns of our congregation.
We remember people throughout the world: in places of war and strife, especially refugees and all victims of violence and oppression.
For comfort and healing for all who are affected by the Coronavirus around the world: for physicians, nurses, and all others who minister to the sick and the suffering, and for those administering the vaccination, may God grant them wisdom and skill, sympathy and patience, and may God keep them healthy and safe.
For all essential workers: for police, firefighters, EMTs, postal workers, sanitation workers, grocery personnel, delivery and transport workers, and all who must report to work because what they do is essential for our well-being, health, and safety.
For all historical acts of injustice and oppression: especially those perpetrated against native, Black, Hispanic and various Asian Americans in this abundant land, that we may recognize racism in ourselves, in our church, in our society, and the times we have failed to take action.
For a reverence for the earth as God's own creation: that we may use its resources rightly in the service of others and to God's honor and glory, and for wisdom, guidance, and persistence as we face the challenges of climate change and work for the flourishing and health of all the earth.
For those on the Parish Prayer Chain: Danny, Charlotte, Diana, Caleb, June, Ruth, David, Kathy Nick, Roberta, Beth, Walker, Warren, Steven, Susan, Ann, John, Stephen.

For all the blessings of this life.
For our dioceses in the Anglican Communion: The Diocese of Bunyoro-Kitara – The Church of the Province of Uganda.

For one another.
Something to share
I have come to terms with the future
I have come to terms with the future.
From this day onward I will walk
easy on the earth. Plant trees. Kill
no living things. Live in harmony with
all creatures. I will restore the earth
where I am. Use no more of its resources
than I need. And listen, listen to what
it is telling me.
– M. J. Slim Hooey

Be careful what you read online. There are reports of false information circulating in an attempt to create fear and confusion. It is critical to discern what and how something is said, as well as what is not said. And, God forbid, always remember – any online or texted-based solicitation from me for money is A SCAM. Do not reply to such messages. Delete them.
Our goal is for all of us to stay in touch and connected in this time of isolation and transition.
Share this news, and spread some love, not the virus!
Irish Blessing
May the road rise up to meet you,
May the wind be at your back,
May the sun shine upon your face,
the rains fall soft upon soft upon your fields,
And until we meet again
May God hold you in the palm of God's hand.
Be of good courage. We are in this together, and we will be together again soon. God bless you and may God be with us in the days ahead.

Simple Chat Room using Python
In this article we will see how to make a server and client chat room system using Socket Programming with Python.
The sockets are the endpoints of any communication channel. These are used to connect the server and client. Sockets are Bi-Directional. In this area, we will setup sockets for each end and setup the chatroom system among different clients through the server. The server side has some ports to connect with client sockets. When a client tries to connect with the same port, then the connection will be established for the chat room.
There are basically two parts. The server side and the client side. When the server side script is running, it waits for any active connection request. When one connection is established, it can communicate with it.
In this case we are using localhost. If machines are connected via LAN, then we can use IP addresses to communicate. The server will display its IP, and ask for a name for the server. From the client side, we have to mention a name, and also the IP address of the server to connect.
The Server Side Code
import time, socket, sys print('Setup Server...') time.sleep(1) #Get the hostname, IP Address from socket and set Port soc = socket.socket() host_name = socket.gethostname() ip = socket.gethostbyname(host_name) port = 1234 soc.bind((host_name, port)) print(host_name, '({})'.format(ip)) name = input('Enter name: ') soc.listen(1) #Try to locate using socket print('Waiting for incoming connections...') connection, addr = soc.accept() print("Received connection from ", addr[0], "(", addr[1], ")\n") print('Connection Established. Connected From: {}, ({})'.format(addr[0], addr[0])) #get a connection from client side client_name = connection.recv(1024) client_name = client_name.decode() print(client_name + ' has connected.') print('Press [bye] to leave the chat room') connection.send(name.encode()) whileTrue: message = input('Me > ') if message == '[bye]': message = 'Good Night...' connection.send(message.encode()) print("\n") break connection.send(message.encode()) message = connection.recv(1024) message = message.decode() print(client_name, '>', message)
The Client Side Code
import time, socket, sys print('Client Server...') time.sleep(1) #Get the hostname, IP Address from socket and set Port soc = socket.socket() shost = socket.gethostname() ip = socket.gethostbyname(shost) #get information to connect with the server print(shost, '({})'.format(ip)) server_host = input('Enter server\'s IP address:') name = input('Enter Client\'s name: ') port = 1234 print('Trying to connect to the server: {}, ({})'.format(server_host, port)) time.sleep(1) soc.connect((server_host, port)) print("Connected...\n") soc.send(name.encode()) server_name = soc.recv(1024) server_name = server_name.decode() print('{} has joined...'.format(server_name)) print('Enter [bye] to exit.') whileTrue: message = soc.recv(1024) message = message.decode() print(server_name, ">", message) message = input(str("Me > ")) if message == "[bye]": message = "Leaving the Chat room" soc.send(message.encode()) print("\n") break soc.send(message.encode())
