This is a beautiful place. It’s known by some as “Big Blue” but lately it suffers from “big blues”. Lots of mean things are happening here. Violence, unrest, suffering. Granted there are also good things happening but in the past few weeks we are reminded of how fragile the whole thing is. Good people we must strive to change things in a meaningful and profound way. Pray and work for peace. This place is worth it. Lord hear our prayer.
