LETTER FROM STAFF

This week, I wanted to share a quote from Henri Nouwen (which can be found in this week's featured article) as a reminder for all of us during this #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth:

"Compassion is hard because it requires the inner disposition to go with others to the place where they are weak, vulnerable, lonely and broken. But this is not our spontaneous response to suffering. What we desire most is to do away with suffering by fleeing from it or finding a quick cure for it. And so we ignore our greatest gift, which is our ability to enter into solidarity with those who suffer."
