democracy, today we will love you alive

The work of radical inclusion; of collective liberation.

We extinguish this flame but not its meaning and mission in our hearts.

Friends, thank you for your witness to all that exists on the margins; thank you for your commitment to hold yourselves and one other in great and steadfast love. Moving forward from this space, may we continue to nurture spiritual growth. May we continue to travel along the winding pathway to...

Though we experience discomfort, we are excited to give birth to a new, just world.

May the promises you have made to yourself about who you want to be feel closer to the reality of who you are right now.

Let it be said by generations to come that when the pain of our separation was revealed, we moved closer to the promised land of our beloved community.

Let us honor our ancestors by doing the work of living boldly, loving mightily, and creating heaven on earth.

Hope continues, uncertain and true, like candlelight, ready to spark again.

We leave this gathered community, But we don’t leave our connection, Our concerns, our care for each other. Our service to each other, to the world, and to our faith continues. Until we are together again, friends, Be strong, be well, be true, be loving.
