May we never forget…
…every life lost that day.
…every family impacted by the loss of a loved one who carries the memories of them in their hearts everyday.
…every survivor and their visible or invisible wounds.
…every selfless soul who ran towards the danger, including every first responder.
…every person who was a part of the rescue and recovery.
…the empathy and the compassion we had towards one another.
…we didn’t see each other’s race, ethnicity, religion, political views, etc, that day.
…we saw each other as the human beings we are.
…we stood beside one another in solidarity.
…and out of this tragedy, we united in love.
I invite you to join me to take 9-11 minutes to…
pause. breathe. pray.
May we pray however the Spirit leads us. And as we look to the past may it give us wisdom for the present.
With love and hope,
Shawn
