CREATING COMMUNITY

There are three activities that are absolutely vital in the creation of a community. The first is eating together around the same table. 


The second is praying together. 


And the third is celebrating together. By celebrating I mean to laugh, to fool around, to have fun, to give thanks together for life. 


When we are laughing together with belly laughs we are all the same.
