HEALING TREE – Over the
course of the season of Lent this year, we are going to be hanging
"Moments of Healing" on the tree. Green leaves will be
available for those who want to write down something that they did this week
that had an element of "healing" to it - called an old friend,
re-establishing a broken relationship, forgiving an old hurt, something like
that. The tree is "dead" - the green leaves will bring it to
new "life" one bud at a time! These are our prayers for healing
in our world as a whole.
