Happy 2020, everyone!
Word! Check out this interesting article by my colleague Tim Atkins:
I’m giving it a shot! My choice for 2020 is the word, “Breathe.” Feels especially fitting to me this year. Of course, I’m not referring to breathing of the autonomic sort. I’m talking about breathing between a stimulus and a reaction. Breathing before a potentially stressful situation or conversation. That sort of conscious, deep breathing.
Even just one deep breath can make such a difference. I hope you’ll consider Tim’s suggestion. It would be fun to compare notes at year’s end!
Sunday, 1/12: Everyone will begin together in the Great Hall. Following the Story for All Ages, K/1 Children will be led by their teachers to their classroom in the church hallway. Children in grades 2-7 and 10-12 will meet in the church entryway and be led across the street to their Waters House classrooms. Coming of Age youth will attend the service as their Religious Education for the day.
