The missus received an AGM notification from her local Credit Union recently.
The second page contained the following:
We were surprised by this, and wonder whether this is the norm for Credit Unions and, if so, is there some historic church-credit union link?
We're also worried that, being agnostic, my missus might be excommunicated by the Credit Union and her funds seized for bad behaviour! Can anyone reassure her please.
The second page contained the following:
CREDIT UNION INVOCATION
Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; and where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love; for it is in giving that we receive, it is in pardoning that we are pardoned, and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
Amen
