Virtual Art Wall at United Church of Hayward

One of the things I hear from many of you frequently is how helpless you feel about the ugliness in the world right now. You are calling our congresspeople, rallying, praying, posting sanely, honoring science, checking on your neighbors, donating time, talent, and treasure, and being theologically reflective. But you still feel "kinda yuck." (This is a direct quote from a pastoral care conversation this week.).

Laurie has proposed a wonderful way to sow some beauty in our community. She said the other day, "I wish there was a way we could bring the church kitchen art wall back."

And I started thinking about it, and I think there is. I'd like to invite everyone to send in photos, poetry, artwork, pictures of your knitting or house projects — really anything that "makes your heart sing." You can send those things to Ashley and I (revjeanne@uchucc.org) for inclusion in Updates from the Journey for our new "Virtual Kitchen Art Wall." which will be featured periodically.
