HAIL MARYS: Humbling Generosity, Healing Gifts

It’s a ‘pigskin prayer’ with hands gripping a football tossed up in the Air towards the goal... It’s a ‘patient prayer’ with fingers touching beads faithfully offered out in Spirit into the World... It’s a ‘pressured prayer’ with leaders inviting family and friends to open hearts and resources to empower ministries that connect all people and enact the Beloved Community...

But it also heralds the surprising Sources of these resources in our communal Sacred Story...those on the margins whose gracious generosity flowed into the Center of that Community, enabling the Love of the Christ to be experienced by all Divine Humanity and extending the Gifts of Creation for Us All.

As we consider these unlikely Beloveds whose humble generosity unveils healing Gifts, and the unexpected ways provisions are uncovered and shared to embody the Vision of Life in Love...

How might we discover that we are Sources of abundance waiting to be shared with ALL living on ‘a wing and a prayer,’ flinging up ‘Hail Marys’ every day?
How might our gracious and generous giving transform a hopeful Dream into a living Reality?
