So yes, Gaza is on my mind more than usual today.



For the healing of the nations
Lord we pray with one accord,
For a just and equal sharing
Of the things that earth affords.
To a life of love in action
help us rise and pledge our word.

Lead your people into freedom,
From despair your world release
That, redeemed from war and hatred
All may come and go in peace.
Show us how, through care and goodness,
fear will die and hope increase.

ALl that kills abundant living
let it from the earth be banned.
Pride of status, race, or schooling
dogmas that obscure your plan.
In our common quest for justice
may we hallow life's brief span.

You, Creator-God have written
your great name on humankind.
For our growing in your likeness,
bring the life of Christ to mind
that by our response and service
earth its destiny may find.

what time?

The movie starts at dusk, but I'm sure it will be a crowd since its Star Wars and all. At this time I'm planning on going, and going straight from work to get a spot, and would be happy to hold space for anyone arriving later.

Somewhere at home I know I do, I keep running across it and going "I should call her.... dang, its 3 am" or something of the sort.

But could you email me with it just in case?
