This centering meditation, offered by Rev. Brigitta, includes these words: We find ourselves in a new story. … our theological inheritance reminds us that … our stories are always a part of … a larger story of principled struggle for healing, justice, for liberation still in the making. … With these hands, we hold the weight of our anger, the grieving sorrow of our hearts, and the fear and pain of a divided world. May we honor the hurts we are holding. May these hands offer compassion, … May they act with justice, lifting up the silenced and the oppressed and working for a world where all are heard, seen, and free.
