Welcome

Primitive religion is not believed, it is danced!

Arthur Darby Nock

Earth's crammed with heaven,
And every common bush afire with God;
And only he who sees takes off his shoes;
The rest sit round it and pluck blackberries.

Elizabeth Browning

Peace


“Peace is joy at rest. Joy is peace on its feet.
quoting her pastor in Salon, April 25, 2003”
― Anne Lamott

sigh
wouldn’t it be nice to be at peace?

sigh
wouldn’t it be nice to have joy?

hear the good news
this faith we twist and turn to make
painful and hurtful

this faith we manage to make
a burden

is about being a rest
it is about leaning back into the loving arms of the sacred
and being love

it is about joy
it is about being people who
secure in comfortable about who they are
can walk through life
loving
forgiving
caring
making a difference

today
realizing we are loved by God
and there is nothing we can do about that!
Nothing
God’s love just is

Let us
Have peace
And live peace

Joy
