Choosing (How) to Heal

In English we say, 'I'm tired.' But in poetry we say I've been holding up entire skies with hands that were only ever meant to hold flowers.  -- Sophia Bray

We need to be careful when we talk about healing.  Without care, our dialog can feel normative, impatient... as though everyone can heal right now, or wants to.  As though everyone heals the same way.

One thing we can say with certainty about healing is that it looks different for each person.  This maxim guides our worship today.  Rather than one voice, we'll open up space & offer up a few -- in reflection, poetry, and song -- all on a common theme: choosing to heal.

Immediately following the service wil be a soup lunch, and then our Annual Meeting.
