Through the virtual world

we come together

to celebrate

triumphs like

the U.S.

Women’s Soccer Team winning the World Cup.

We mourn

together when tragic events

occur

all too frequently.

Recently,

in my town

adults and children

gathered on the lawn

of one of the churches

for an interfaith service.

Each different clergy person

spoke or prayed

with those gathered together.

Some places of worship

no longer

are filled weekly

with people of their faiths.

Coming together

from time to time

as members of the community

strengthens each in their own faith

and

conveys that

even though it is

important for us each to pray

in our own traditions

that we realize that we are

on the

same wave length

acknowledging

our God,

our Source,

our Light.
