It can be hard to concentrate these days, hard not to feel the constant and present danger of events in Europe. Hard not to feel helpless and a bystander to inevitability.
But children are still laughing in the playgrounds, and in bomb shelters too, however squeezed of a normal existence they are. Given a chance, life will win out, always.
To smile is not to ignore.
Please join us this Sunday and be strong in our community. There will be music to answer our anguish, but there will also be music to banish the darkness for awhile. It is Saint Patrick’s Day next week, and Howard Welburn will sing and lead us in its celebration at the close of our Lenten service.
Let us come together in song.
Sarah
