Casting a Larger Shadow

 

Whatever good we do,

Whatever kindness or hospitality we provide,

Will cast a larger shadow

Than we may ever see or realize.

A Safe Space

“Hospitality is . . .

the creation of a safe, inviting, trustworthy space

– an atmosphere as much as a place.”

– Krista Tippett* –

 

Nourish peace, cultivate loving kindness, and carry the calm into your gatherings with family and friends. May you yourself be a safe inviting, trustworthy space. May you be hospitality.
