I've heard some table blessings that begin with "Be present at our table, Lord...", and I love it as a reminder that God is in our midst as we gather around the table (and also a reminder for us to be present to one another).
Grateful for some very special evenings we've had this week around our table this week....
Monday night dinner with Zion Lily and Sikose
Tuesday night dinner for the Hands for a Bridge teachers who came to Roosevelt High School for two weeks from South Africa. How amazing for Sikose to get to speak Xhosa around the table!!
(Taylor went with this program to Northern Ireland last year, and I've stayed involved with the project this year. When I found out South African teachers were coming, I was so excited to volunteer our house for an evening dinner. And it just so happened that it was one of the teachers' birthdays, so we pulled out all the stops!)
Thursday night Maundy Thursday dinner with some wonderful folks from Union
