‘Digging’ the Garden of Beloved Community

January 21, 2024

Revs. Hoover & Edington

Beloved Community! Can we dig in and create it? The two of us have been imagining Beloved Community using garden imagery, and invite you to do the same. Some of the questions that have been plowing through our brains include: What plants are essential in a garden of Beloved Community? What kind of plant am I in such a garden? Should there be space for a Rock Garden? Who tends the garden? Is it possible to treat weeds and invasives lovingly? Let your imagination dig into this topic and imagery. Everyone has something to contribute to Beloved Community. We’ll include time for community sharing. Let’s “dig it” together!
