Yesterday, it was interesting to watch the tall garlic plants follow the sun across the yard until at last their lean looked as if their green arms were all reaching west.

#June #Bog Update! jennashton.persona.co

Here is my wee bloggy May update! jennashton.persona.co

Pope Francis leaves behind a legacy of compassion, courage, and a continuing call to protect our common home and all who share it with us. In his 2023 exhortation, Laudato Deum, he spoke out strongly against those who reject what science tells us about climate and deny their own responsibility. 🧵

"How a simple tradition changed their neighborhood. A good reminder of how small, consistent actions can have outsize results. It also shows you don’t have to share a kitchen or a roof to live in community." supernuclear.substack.com/p/stoop-coff...

Little gentle reminder to all the human creatives out there 💪

Today, we acknowledge Indigenous communities' incredible strength and resilience across this land. For generations, they have worked tirelessly to preserve their languages, the living embodiment of law, culture, history, and connection to the land.⁠ via #capuindigenous

If you want to read a new book coming out but don't want to buy it, a great thing you can do is ask your local library to order it. The more requests they get, the more likely they are to acquire it and then lots of people will get to read it who othewise wouldn't.

Krista Tippett '94 M.Div. is coming to Yale February 12! Learn more and get your free ticket here:

Remember that January 20th 2025 is Martin Luther King Jr Day.. A day of service. Let's not be consumed by any other events of the day and let's focus on service to those less fortunate.

Jesus began his public ministry with his baptism, administered by John the Baptist at the Jordan River. Why is this event important enough to have its own feast day? Wasn't Jesus just a baby last week? Read about the Baptism in Matthew 3, and drop into a Bible study to ask more questions!
