Dear Friends,
We hope that you are safe and well.
Today's meditation features Carrie Newcomer reflecting on seeing this Blue Heron and it leading her to meditate on the thin spaces where the seen and unseen meet--finding wonder where we are.
We invite you to join us as we commit ourselves to working tirelessly to end systemic and structural racism in our society, in the church, in healthcare, in the workplace--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.

Jean and I were delighted and inspired to see this courageous witness by these seven women from the Women's Ordination Conference standing up and speaking out for what they believe in: the Ordination of women in the Catholic Church. They used the Pope's gathering of new cardinals to teach their message. Today's Meditation features their Ministry of Irritation. As Roy Bourgeois would say, "Jean, we are just poking the beehive."
