September 29th

"'The kingdom of heaven is like . . .'" Matthew 13:44a

where out of state crews
drive hours to be in place
to restore power in storms,
when a friend brings a generator
to someone's house so they
can keep medical equipment running,
as folks go door to door
making sure everyone in 
the community is safe and 
accounted for,
in the folks who bring food
which will spoil soon to churches
so meals can be prepared and
served to folks who lost everything,
there
in those moments,
those people,
those places,
the Beloved Community
has taken root.
