Please pray that a good woman J. will receive many more calls and messages with offers of a home for a cat whose owner is seriously ill and cannot care for her. She will freeze to death on the street, but the shelter will euthanize her. Only a short time left. s. Pray for pet safety, protection and home. Thank you

Reflection
Love Your Enemies

There’s no small amount of conflict going on in the world right now. Probably always true but it feels especially loud right now... 

Activities
Practicing Love | Christmas Cards

I wonder how many of us are looking at the weeks ahead, and feeling like love is going to be pretty hard, in some situations. That maybe we’ll be in encounters – whether at family dinners, work parties, even extra time at home – with people we actually find it hard to love... 

Reflection
Tactile Prayer | Autumn Leaves

Autumn is absolutely incredible in all of its colourful splendor. But of course, those colours are actually a signal that we are headed for the dead cold of winter. As the season changes, this is the time of year, as someone has said, when the trees are showing us just how beautiful it can be to let dead things go.
