Bordon Myers Woodworking, Parkdale (Charlottetown)

I was in Charlottetown the other day and in the parking lot of Parkdale Pharmacy - I took these photos of Borden Myers Woodworking shop. Here's a few photos I took.

For more than 30 years I've been sending folks to Borden Myers Woodworking for windows, doors, etc. Here's a door and window made by Borden.

HERITAGE PRAYER

We keep forgetting all of those who lived before us.

We keep forgetting those who lived and worked in our communities.
We keep forgetting those who prayed and sang hymns in our churches before we were born.
We keep forgetting what our fathers have done for us.
We commit the sin, Lord, of assuming that everything begins with us.

We drink from wells we did not find.
We eat food from farmland we did not develop.
We enjoy freedoms which we have not earned.
We worship in churches which we did not build.
We live in communities we did not establish.
This day, make us grateful for our heritage.

Amen
