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 "Edelweiss" sung by the Little Singers of Armenia.

For us, the first time we heard this sung in The Sound of Music, we were struck by how heart-warming a tribute to Austria it was. We invite you as you watch and listen, to pray for our country and for the world: as our Congress tries to find room in our hearts to help those impacted by the Coronavirus, as we progress towards electing new leaders in November, as we, in the spirit of Black Lives Matter, build a more inclusive country.

 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.

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.

In this "Season of Ordinary Time" in the Church Year, may this be a time of peace, of healing and hope, of the infusion of joy in your life!

With our love and care,

Ron & Jean
