Seems like a good place to start...
In the past days we have lived through history. We have seen people moved by the Holy Spirit to stand up for their brothers and sisters. We have been challenged to look in the mirror and journey inward with our own thoughts and notions. While, for some, this is a difficult task, but one that Jesus continually presents us with - an opportunity to soften our hearts and broaden our scope of compassion and empathy. God meets us in this space and encourages us to do better.
So, what DID Jesus do? What WOULD Jesus do today? Jesus would listen, Jesus would minister, Jesus would accompany. He would meet us where we are and journey with us towards understanding and peace in our souls. We are offering a space to do just that. Pray, reflect and be challenged. As we revisit this time years from now, as we speak to our children and grandchildren about what occurred, what will your story be?

Did you love your neighbor?
Did you listen to someone whose life experience is different than yours?
Did you challenge yourself to see the world through someone else’s eyes?

God lives in each of us and we are obligated to treat each other as such.
All are welcome, actually welcome, completely welcome in this place.
And the Church says,
Amen
