Something I was reading this past week posited the idea that our increasingly fractured culture could be mended in no small part by us learning how to talk with one another again, and to do so in a rational, thoughtful and kind manner even when we disagree. Sounds like a normal community to me, but I am also aware that this sort of interaction is discernbly in decline. All to say…show up if you are able, prepared to share a meal and practice the art of conversation and community.  It matters.

We will meet at our usual time and place (10:45 a.m., V.A. Cafe), take some time to check in to breathe together, check in with one another in Community Time, sing a bit, have a short Talky Bit and then eat together.

Souper Sunday (a potluck by any other name is still a potluck, right?) Details:
– bring whatever you want
– come whether you have something to bring or not
– we will provide cups, paper service, cutlery and beverages
– there isn’t an oven or other kitchen appliances at this venue, but we have plenty of places to plug in things like crock pots, just in case your favorite potluck item is a warm one

Let’s gather to share ideas, lived experiences and good food. It will be good for our bodies, minds and spirits.

I’ll see you on Sunday.

Peace,
