This has been a momentous week in many ways–new leadership in Washington with the possibility of some truth-telling, other-centeredness, and care for all the people. There seemed to be a collective sigh of relief on Wednesday with the anticipation and promise of so much good coming forth.

We are all challenged anew to do our part. We pray with the psalmist this week, “Make me know your ways, O God.”

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy
