Why Mend?

Stitch by stitch, I’m learning to repair. My teachers are YouTube videos, vintage pamphlets, and octogenarian church ladies. Mostly, I’ve learned by sitting down and working with my hands. I’m learning with my hands what I longed for in my life: to repair what is torn.

This is #biketowork and my work, to rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those who weep. What a good day to rejoice. (Also, #Boston, if NYC can put a protected bike lane through Time Square, we can do it on mass ave, all the way. )

“Qui Transtulit Sustinet” is carved over the doors of @oldsouthchurch, or “God who brought us this far, sustains us still.” This was a pretty awesome 350th birthday party- photo booth with Phyllis Wheatley and Sam Adams, “huzzah! ” with Ben Franklin and the #KeytarBear, joyful worship and thick community. tradition and innovation, and a profound honoring of the past while not idolizing it. I’ve often gathered at this church after a traumatic event. How very good to gather in joy. We are sustained, still. #Boston

I’m highly susceptible to good marketing, and burnt ends. I’ve also been called baby, honey, pretty lady, and sugar more in the last 3 hours than all of the last year in New England. #mybabysgotsauce #nomoreburntofferings #feelingcute #bbq

Today in #griefbaking, my #sourdough brick. Jesus is risen. My bread did not. And in truth, with all the violence aimed at religious minorities over the past week, I have not tended well my sourdough starter. Not enough feeding and resting. Tried to put it to work before it was ready.

“Be thou amazed, O Heaven, and let the foundations of the earth quake...” No #viewfromthepulpit tonight, but a #viewfromthechoirloft! I joined/was drafted into the choir of Saints Anargyroi Greek #Orthodox Church. Grateful for the abundant hospitality from @frxtakos. I’m ready for some earth shaking.

#viewfromthepulpit tonight for the #rememberingsrilanka vigil. So much has been lost. So good to gather in our grief.
