Blessed be She

Who found the small

Mid-Eastern Deli

That reminded her

Of an old New Mexican

Church

Bless its transformation

Into the Unity Church of

Santa Fe

The church with open

Doors

With open hearts

 

Blessed be She

Who led her congregation

To the doorway of

Understanding

Inviting them to enter

Or remain wherever

They choose to be

Blessed freedom of

Choice

 

Blessed be She

Who speaks the word of

God

Filtered through the

Mind

Of her understanding

 

Blessed be She

Who leaves her pulpit

Free

To grow to other levels of

Spirituality

As she closes the book

On her twenty-seven

Blessed years

Years of service

To the blessed Unity Church

Of Santa Fe

 

Bless you on your way

With our Love

Our blessed memories

Of your years

And our eternal gratitude

Dear Rev Brendalyn Batchelor
