This Sunday, our own Stephen Carew continued our month of reflections on Journey with thoughts based on his own personal journey and a folkloric one. He encouraged us to heed our own unique call to journey and adventure, reflecting how travel introduces us to diversity and broadens our outlook. He also called on us to be mindful of those throughout the world who have had and continue to have journeys forced upon them, and to work for justice for refugees. He concluded with the Plains Native American story of Jumping Mouse (from the book "Seven Arrows"): called by a unique perception he can't describe to those around him, Jumping Mouse begins a journey thinking that he can solve this little niggle and go home, but as new situations arise and he responds with courage and generosity, it turns out there is no going back --- his life is miraculously and forever transformed.
Next Sunday, March 31st:
