The Importance of Now
The Rev. Shaun Whitehead, Pulpit Guest
“Many are the windows that will stay darkened unless we light them. It is our watch now! Come great hearts, come dreamers and singers and poets, come builders, come healers, come activists, come those of the soil and those who command the might of machines. Carry the sacred flame to make light the windows of the world. It is we who must be keepers of the flame. It is we who must carry the imperishable fire. It is our watch now! It is our watch now!” –Rev. Tom Owen-Towle
