Dear Friends,

 We pray you are safe and well.

Today's Meditation will inspire you: Time Magazine names Gitanjali Rao, 15, "Kid of the Year."

She said, "I was always someone who wanted to put a smile on someone's face" Then she started thinking about "How can I bring positivity and community to the place we live?" And then in second or third grade, she was thinking about, "How can we use science and technology to create social change?" One of her more recent projects is how can we prevent cyberbullying.

We invite you to join us as we commit ourselves to working tirelessly to end systemic and structural racism in our society, in healthcare, in the workplace, in the Church--wherever it shows up so that everyone may come to have more abundant life. May this meditation nourish our contemplative-active hearts and sustain all of us in action.

In the spirit of our philosophy of co-creating community and our awareness that the Spirit speaks through each of us, we invite you to share your meditations with us as well. We truly believe that in God’s economy of abundance, when we share our blessings, our thoughts, our feelings, we are all made richer.

We hope and pray that you and your loved ones experience genuine peace of mind and heart, and remain in good health during this challenging time.

May this New Year beginning be a time of peace, of healing and hope, of the infusion of joy in your life!

With our love and care,

Ron and Jean
