Another joyful Jubilee! celebration
Another enlivening and evocative celebration at Jubilee! Community this Sunday morning. And as always, the opportunity for profound connection with lot of folks. Some highlights from Minister of Ritual Howard Hanger, others who made the magic possible as well as YouTube versions of some of the songs we sang. May peace be with all of y’all! Oh, yeah!
From Howard’s meditation on risky business
“There’s no such thing as security in this life, sweetheart; and the sooner you accept that fact, the better off you’ll be. The person who strives for security will never be free. The person who believes that she’s found security will never reach paradise. What she mistakes for security is purgatory. You know what purgatory is, Gwendolyn? It’s the waiting room, it’s the lobby. Not only does she have the wrong libretto, she’s stuck in the lobby where she can’t see the show.” –Tom Robbins, Half Asleep in Frog Pajamas
“A good talking to” by Donna Glee Williams and Tebbe Davis
What should you care about, NOW? Is it really the car you drive, with all the bells and whistles? Keeping the grass mowed and the edges trimmed? The latest hand-bags, sensible pumps, hair, nails, wide-screen, cellphone? Toys, toys, and more toys?
[ . . . ]
But you need to hear the message from people you love, mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers and your best friends. They have to remind you of what matters, and you have got to hear the lesson . . . or else.
Wo-Ya-Ya
we are going, heaven knows where we are going,
we’ll know we’re there
we will get there, heaven knows how we will get there,
we know we will
Stand by me
When the storms of life are raging, stand by me
What a Wonderful World
