At our team meeting this week, our boss asked us to take some time to consider how we might intentionally spend today (Juneteenth), rather than just thinking of it as “another day off.” How do I honor this day in a respectful way?

April is recognized as National Child Abuse Prevention Month and Sexual Assault Awareness Month. I would encourage you to stop and consider what actions you might take personally, as a faith community or in your local community to protect children and support survivors.
