Enduring Together

What happens to one happens to all
When there is a tragic accident
It's not a duty, it is our call
To respond as the Lord's instrument

Those who've lost loved one's receive comfort
From members who recognize a need
Leapt into action; though time was short
Their first thought but to do a good deed

Those who endure heartbreaking trials
Grow in appreciation for prayer
And, when another's burdens pile,
They're often the first one's to give care

We can bear one another's burdens
Treat their trials as though they're our own
Then, we are prepared when pain happens
To endure and find help with the load

-Bishop Richard C. Edgley
