Dear Friends,We pray you are safe and well. 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. Today’s meditation is written by Jan Richardson entitled "Stay: A Blessing for Ascension Day." We used this as the Second Reading for our Zoom Eucharist yesterday and people requested that we send it out so they could ponder it and let it echo in their hearts. May this meditation nourish your contemplative-active hearts!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 the Easter Season be a time of peace, of healing and hope, of the resurrection of joy in your life!With our love and care,Ron & Jean

We truly believe that in God’s economy of abundance, when we share our blessings, our thoughts, our feelings, we are all made richer. Today’s meditation is written by Hopi Elders: "We are who we've been waiting for" and passed on to us by Irene Desharnais. Our hearts are breaking when we hear how the Coronavirus is affecting the Navaho Nation with no running water and little medical care. We rejoice that Doctors Without Borders are going to minister to them. We repent how we as a nation have treated the Native Peoples and pledge to work to make changes.
