Dear Friends,
We hope that you are safe and well.
Today's Meditation is a reflection by Rev. Talitha Arnold: "The Wonder of It All." Did you see the glorious pictures of Jupiter with the auroras at both poles? WOW. Open your eyes in wonder. Close your eyes in wonder, too. We are with you.
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.

Today's Meditation is a poem by Tony Hoagland "Field Guide." Tony lifts up this ordinary, spectacular moment and Ralph Waldo Emerson comments: If the stars came out only one night a century, that night would be considered an astounding spectacle, a wonder of the world,,, all of us would stay up and behold them in breathless awe--and yet, there they are each cloudless night, no less miraculous for being so frequently visible.
