Space for Change to Take Place
By Henri Nouwen
Hospitality means primarily the creation of a free space where the stranger can enter and become a friend instead of an enemy. Hospitality is not to change people, but to offer them space where change can take place. It is not to bring men and women over to our side, but to offer freedom not disturbed by dividing lines. It is not to lead our neighbor into a corner where there are no alternatives left, but to open a wide spectrum of options for choice and commitment.

A NOTE FROM OUR COMMISSION ON SOCIAL MINISTRIES
We are hoping to continue our work with local interfaith organizations to help find housing and support relocation efforts for refugees. There will be an upcoming opportunity to learn more about the sponsor, Hearts & Homes. If you or anyone you know is interested in helping, please contact Heidi Hill as in order to continue with this group, we need more hands and voices to do this valuable outreach work.

we are running
running and
time is clocking us
from the edge like an only
daughter.
our mothers stream before us,
cradling their breasts in their
hands.
oh pray that what we want
is worth this running,
pray that what we’re running
toward
is what we want.
