Too many to count today, but I’ll try anyway: Awaking to the sound of birds and all things spring. Pausing “just a few more seconds” in God’s Presence before rushing off to get ready for the day.

Below are the lyrics for the song “I Believe” written by the First Trinity Youth Band and some of the 8th grade confirmands to celebrate today.

Sorry, You’re not getting an Intern.
