Come to the table just as you are,
addicted, grieving, broken, hopeless, traumatized, with mental illness, lonely and isolated,
come to the table.
Hearts of compassion and acceptance meet you,
Ears hear the depths of your pain,
Eyes see who you are,
Bread of community is shared and what was once hidden,
is illuminated, embraced, and gently felt.
Come to the table of love, where hope is restored and brothers and sisters bear the load.
