Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day

Reflection

“Love makes your soul crawl out from its hiding place.” –Zora Neale Hurston

Prayer

Loving God,

As we rightly have fun on Valentine’s Day today, we also take time to give thanks for love’s depth and significance. Beyond simple romantic attraction, true love always calls us to be selfless and focused on the good of the “other.” Let this kind of love be multiplied among us, so as to become a community that naturally manifests love’s generosity and hospitality. May we love in such a way that the souls around us are drawn out of their hiding places, and into the light of belonging, acceptance, support and respect. Amen.

Call to Action

Have a festive and joyful Valentine’s Day! Remember especially those who are in need of someone to show them love and inclusion. Do so, in some way today.
