Susan Panttaja DESCRIPTION:\n\n\nThere are times when the problems in the world touch us d eeply\, when despair and worry can overwhelm us\, when it is difficult to stay engaged\, let alone know how to respond. In times like these\, says V alarie Kaur\, "our most powerful response...is to refuse to surrender our humanity." In keeping with this month's theme of generosity\, today we wil l consider how to maintain and offer our humanity\, with open\, if broken\ , hearts. Through poetry\, music\, and reflection\, let us share our grief and find strength in community.\n\nHYBRID SERVICE: in-person &\; onlin e. Online: join HERE\nMeeting ID: 965 8475 4060\nPasscode: 218531\nCall- in #: (669) 900-9128\n\n\n\n\nOrder of Service\nWelcome — “We Gather ” by Pat Uribe-Lichty\nCentering through Music — “My Heart Will Go O n” by J.
