[Magdalen] SC property case

[Sally Davies]

Dearest Ginga

Thanksgivings and praise. It has been such a long road and you have played your part! As have we in the listening, supporting and praying these many years. 

History says that such schisms cannot be repaired, but the Lord of Peace and Lord of Years is at work! 


Crown Him the Lord of peace,
  Whose power a scepter sways
From pole to pole, that wars may cease,
  And all be prayer and praise.
  His reign shall know no end,
  And round His pierced feet
Fair flowers of glory now extend
  Their fragrance ever sweet.

And in more contemporary mode:

Indeed, honesty comes with a price, as always in this world. May you and your church family enter a season of harvest joy my sister!
