Thank you to all who made the Bishops' visit such a wonderful event on Thursday evening, October 22, 2009.  Thank you to Bishop Mark for a wonderful sermon.  We all look forward to our future in companionship with his Diocese and the Diocese of Bujumbura.  Photos below in the slideshow. As requested, here is Bishop Mark's blessing:
Deep peace of the running wave to you
Deep peace of the flowing air to you
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you
Deep peace of the shining stars to you
Deep peace of the Son of Peace to you
