What better way to celebrate #Arch630Day than with cute babies! Weston and Breelyn arrived today, 6/30, at our birthplace. What makes June 30 Arch Day? Because the @GatewayArchSTL is 630 feet tall and 630 feet wide, of course.

Merciful God,
as we carry the ash tattoo of the cross upon our foreheads,
kindle within us memories of your mercy.
Give us the courage to turn away from sin and return to You,
and so find our way to one another.
It is in this turning that we find our truth.
Amen.
