Opening Lines

ECO MAD: Every Child's Opportunity to Make a Difference Dana Smith Bagnall In an effort to promote hope instead of despair for future generations, a group of children and teachers from the Exeter Cathedral School...
Listen for My Heart Sound Nancy Boyle When walking through an airport recently, I counted the number of people who were taking or listening on a cell phone.
Turning Points Marked Jaimie Combs My life is one that has always been about learning from my experiences.
Wisdom Calls at the Threshold Julia Dorsey Loomis In our global diversity, wisdom can be a unifying force.  Wisdom is "that which holds all things together."
A Modern-Day Pilgrimage Aeren Martinez Last August 25 semi-strangers got together to go on a journey to Guatemala.
Making a Medical Clinic work Differently Mike McLoughlin "That's not my job!" I said indignantly when the office manager suggested I come into the clinic for a day to work as a Medical Office Assistant at our family business....
Pilgrimage II Coleen Myers In 2002, on our first journey to Guatemala, my husband and I learned about the plight of the Maya population following the 30+ years of civil war in Guatemala.

Open to All Dorothy Shelly Poem

A Light in Black Bottom Bennett Spong I grew up in the American South, in the state of South Carolina.  In the early 1960's, the economic and social legacy of slavery was being perpetuated by customs that were designed to discriminate, demean and dehumanize.
Reflections on Advent Margalea Warner Poem
Manna Joni Woelfel It was a nasty night out, cold and blustery.  I snapped on the light switch to our outdoor flood light, illuminating our back porch where we put out food for animals.
