Lady, whose shrine stands on the promontory,
Pray for all those who are in ships . . .
Also pray for those who were in ships, and
Ended their voyage on the sand, in the sea's lips
Or in the dark throat which will not reject them
Or wherever cannot reach them the sound of the sea bell's
Perpetual angelus.
The Lily Jane
By Marco Ray
We help people tell their own stories.
Help us continue our mission.
Today, we are asking our community to help sustain all that we do—and to uphold our commitment that no one is turned away for lack of funds.
For the last four years, we have been blessed by the support of a major grant from a dear friend of the GWC. That grant ends this coming year. To ensure our future, we must make adjustments to live within our means, and we must widen the circle of friends who care about our mission. Reach out and get involved! We would love to have you!
