It wouldn't be summer without the lanterns in Oak Bluffs in August. All the gingerbread houses are full of colorful lanterns hanging from the porches and the rafters.
There will be a community sing in the Tabernacle and the Vineyard Haven band organized in 1868 by both Confederate and Union veterans of the Civil War will play for the crowd.
A signal will be given in the open air Tabernacle and all the houses in the camp meeting ground will be lighted. It's a Summer tradition on Martha's Vineyard. Perhaps the President of the United States who is vacationing on the island will attend this year.
It will be a perfect night. Clear, cool and fresh describes today. Surely the presence of the Lord is in this place. As John Wesley said: The best of all is God is with us.
Peace
