Today on the Episcopal calendar we remember Nicolaus Copernicus and Johannes Kepler, 1543, who laid the groundwork for modern astronomy.

                                                                      Psalm 108:1,3

My heart is firmly, fixed, 

O Lord, 

my heart 

is  fixed; I will sing  and make melody. For your loving-kindness 

is greater than the heavens 

& your faithfulness reaches to the clouds. 

“O God, we pray that you

would continue to ad-vance our understanding of your cosmos, to our good & to your glory….”
