A Thoughtful Good Friday

Good Friday ,Passover and Easter begin and end this weekend. These days should remind us of those suffering in the world. We should reflect on how we can make their lives better in big ways and in small. Think about the good you want to do during this season of hope and rebirth. It could be helping out or growing produce for your local food pantry .It could be throwing a much deserved welcome home party for returning vets or treating them to a dinner out. It could just be becoming a lunch time companion for an elderly neighbor living on his or her own. Or sharing an inclusion dinner with neighbors of different religions and backgrounds.

Have your kids get involved too. They learn by watching and your actions will be picked up and made a part of their routine.

This weekend is a time for worship along with celebrating. Make it also a time for planning good deeds for your community. Give others hope and a reason to celebrate.
