Why I Give

Please think about this question, and send us your comments, or share them on our Facebook page - www.facebook.com/saintalbansepiscopal

I'll start - I give because all my life - God and others have given to me, supported me, helped me, and loved me. I am thankful. I give to give back. I give to help others. I give to give thanks in remembrance of all I have received. 

How about you?

For September 11 - Matthew 5:1-10

When Jesus saw the crowds, he went up the mountain; and after he sat down, his disciples came to him. Then he began to speak, and taught them, saying: “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. Blessed are the merciful, for they will receive mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”
