Alka's Angle

Well, what a year! I wonder how history will narrate this year to the generations to come? Even though I know history is generally narrated by the victor -- so it mostly is written from that perspective -- but who will be the victor in this narrative? The virus? The vaccine? The people? Time will tell but I wanted us to take a moment to reflect on what this year has meant for us as a congregation, and as people:

We are exactly a week away from Christmas -- when we celebrate God sharing with us the best gift we could have ever received -- God’s presence in human form -- so we could experience the love God has for us, and all humanity.

Dear Broadway Family, Yes, this is the graphic I am sharing, and No, my intention is not to scare anyone or to bring your spirit down in this season, but I do want to caution us all!

Hope everyone had a safe and satisfying Thanksgiving, given the circumstances and the reality of world we live in. One of the things I was most grateful about last week, was the meals we delivered to some members of our Broadway family. And that was possible because Jon Fallon cooked the best meal, Satia Orange coordinated everything, and Charolette and Nicole contributed to make the meal festive. It was appreciated by all, so we looked for a way to do something for the whole community during Advent, and a suggestion was to have an outside mitten tree. What a great idea!
