Love Your Neighbor
Sneak Peek about Sunday’s Morning Assembly
Of her remarks, Dr. Duelm writes: “Love takes off the masks that we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot live within. I use the word “love” here not merely in the personal sense but as a state of being, or a state of grace- not in the infantile American sense of being made happy but in the tough and universal sense of quest and daring and growth.” James Baldwin
As we celebrate the month of June as LGBTQ+ pride month, we are invited to reflect on love and its power in helping us to live our true authentic selves. What does it mean to truly love your neighbor? Where do you see that kind of love in your life? What is the call of love to you today?
