Seeing Life (Rev. Patti English)

Thanks so much to Rev. Patti English of Fredericksburg Baptist Church, Fredericksburg, VA, for sharing these photos. We wanted to highlight, as a contrast to our concerns about “the bad apocalypse,” the wonders of life all around us. This issue of AllCreation is very much about awakening to those wonders, uncovering them in everyday life, and engaging in relationship. For Rev. Patti—seeing, enjoying and loving the other living members of Creation is a long-held, family tradition.
