Sometimes when we’re working hard to change the way things are, we feel like we’re alone. We feel like making mistakes will be devastating. But we can choose to look around and notice that we are actually not alone, that others are there with us, others have walked our path before us and we can learn from their mistakes and the miracles and connections that made their journey possible. Join us as we explore this in our own lives and the life of our congregation as we kick off our reading of Mistakes and Miracles.
