Moment of Contemplation:

The world is filled with great beauty and great need. May glimpses of beauty fill our Spirits so that we have the capacity to engage the needs of our neighbors.
 
Share Good News this week. Smile at a neighbor. Call or send a note to someone you haven't talked to in a while. Find a unique way to share the blessing of beauty with others.
