From Pastor Aline: "As you formulate your next steps, may you discern your identity and learn to express it with assertiveness as you hold sanctuary for the values you share. May you continue to make safe space for all in the Community. May you hold space for voices less privileged than your own. Most of all, may you go in Peace…Thank you for the countless hugs, meals, letters, and hours of care....As we meet one another, wherever we are on the journey, pray that we can meet another with abundant grace." “And this is it. This is the life we get here on earth. We get to give away what we receive. We get to believe in each other. We get to forgive and be forgiven. We get to love imperfectly.
