The Loving Vulnerability of the Visitation

May 31, 2021 By Lauren Kuratko 1 Comment

Today we celebrate the Visitation of Mary. The Visitation is when Mary, pregnant with Jesus, goes to visit her cousin Elizabeth, pregnant with John (the baptizer). I like to think about this holy friendship—this time of mutual support and love for each other.

Maundy Thursday: Vulnerability

April 18, 2019 By Dorian Del Priore Leave a Comment

Maundy Thursday offers a bookend of touch to Ash Wednesday: a touch on the forehead with ashes juxtaposed with the touch of hands, soap, and water on feet. These are fleeting moments of tenderness, thin spaces of vulnerability, connection.
