A family member of someone at church was killed due to being hit by a car near N. May near the Sam’s Club gas station entrance/exit. Would you consider signing this petition which will go before the traffic commission? There is no marked east–west pedestrian crosswalk for 10 full city blocks. Yet dozens of people cross May Avenue at this location every single day. People cross May Avenue to reach Sam’s Club, the gas station, nearby businesses, apartments, hotels, residential areas, and bus stops. There is no safe, marked place for them to cross.

Like notes on a music staff, we are called to join together to sing songs that proclaim the renewed creation of Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love. This year throughout the Advent and Christmas season, we will encounter familiar and new Carols for the Coming Christ and pause to consider their messages in fresh ways. As a popular quote attributed to Hans Christian Anderson says, “Where words fail, music speaks.” Song poets have long helped us “speak” when our own words fail in the face of our human struggle. The promise of the Coming Christ is that our hearts can hold the world and that the songs in our hearts can heal our weariness.
