She is a gifted woman, and to show you that the universe is conspiring, I contemplated also sending her as a resource to you. I just hadn't gotten to it as of yet! So, consider the baton passed once again in the direction of finding those who have walked this road before. She did so with the same congregational love and focus that I hear in your words--she and her partner encouraged their congregation to make and share casseroles when they were in the thick of the trial. They wanted the congregation to use their own trials as an opportunity to better reach out and love one another, without all the attached intellectualism that can dominate community in progressive mainline churches. She is a great inspiration!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04604631581219462834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7538801849812784311.post-89447857949643738432009-03-04T18:03:00.000-08:002009-03-04T18:03:00.000-08:00Wow.
