”Deep peace of the running wave to you.

Deep peace of the flowing air to you.
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you.
Deep peace of the shining stars to you.
Deep peace of the gentle night to you.
Moon and stars pour their healing light on you.
Deep peace of Christ, of Christ the light of the world to you.

Deep peace of Christ to you.“

The Offering taken at this 2010 Global Service collected more than $4,500 — all donated to The Girl Child Education Fund (GCEF) — a signature initiative of Florence Nightingale International Foundation — supporting the primary and secondary schooling of girls under the age of 18 — in developing countries whose nurse parent or parents have died. Donations go towards school fees, uniforms, shoes and books. 
Since the initiation of the programme over 350 girls have been enrolled in the GCEF — currently supporting 103 girls in Kenya, Swaziland, Uganda and Zambia.
