There were also some healing and spiritual balms from our president, Rev. Susan Frederick-Gray, and Organizing Strategy Director, Rev. Ashley Horan. ********************* Opening words Excerpts from the 13th, 14th, 15th, and 19th amendments to the Constitution of the United States. 13th: Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction. 14th: No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. 15th: The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude. 19th: The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex. Chalice Lighting “Looking Inward, Seeing Outward” by Reginald Ray. It is undeniable that others, and the larger world, so beleaguered at this moment in history, need everything that we have to give. But what to give is the problem. We cannot find out what to do simply by thinking about it. We need to gain our inspiration and our direction from much deeper sources. |
