We hope that you are safe and well.
Today's Meditation comes to us from Carrie Newcomer who reflects on welcoming spring into our hearts and blessing us with the inspiration "that I can hold the both/and of our current world with tender regard."
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.
