Discretionary

Little gifts of the heart
thank you gifts
giving in procession, in unison
in communion
As we come forward
to sup at Your table,
we pause, give a little bit
of our love for You,
for them, those brothers,
those sisters
in need, in our reach
able to be fed, held up
a little bit at a time
quietly, directly
by our little gifts

about donations to the Discretionary Fund
at our church, used by the pastors to support
urgent needs of parishioners and community members
