New Year’s 2021 Newsletter
Honoring peace in our “beloved community” with gifts of lovingkindness and compassion for all.
A compassionate community is an uncomfortable community! A community that is uncomfortable when anyone is homeless or hungry. Uncomfortable if every child isn’t loved and given rich opportunities to grow & thrive. Uncomfortable when as a community we don’t treat our neighbors as we would wish to be treated.
— Adapted from Charter for Compassion International
May we all experience joy, good health, ease of being and lovingkindness. May this year 2021 ignite a flame in us to act on behalf of our beloved community.
In gratitude and love,
