Parish Newsletter.

In the eyes of the foolish they seemed to have died,
and their departure was thought to be a disaster,

3  and their going from us to be their destruction;
but they are at peace.

4  For though in the sight of others they were punished,
their hope is full of immortality.

5 Having been disciplined a little, they will receive great good,
because God tested them and found them worthy of himself;

6 like gold in the furnace he tried them,
and like a sacrificial burnt-offering he accepted them.
(Book of Wisdom 3:2-6)
