Sometimes these days it is hard to take the long view, and to see beyond the many imperfections and failures of our present world and situations. Part of the beauty of the Christian community is the function of reminding each other of these enduring truths. You did that beautifully, and I find that very helpful. Thank you, Skip!

In my faith nurture ministry for Mennonite Church Canada, I write At-Home devotional booklets for families, and the clear wisdom in this reflection will find its way into my nest page on Maundy Thursday. However, the good news of this passage also speaks to my middle aged reality. Blessings on you and Goshen College for providing this ministry which draws us nearer to each other and helps us realise God's nearness and activity in our lives. Shalom.
