Text of excerpt, if available

When we love our neighbor, when we love one another as Jesus loved us, when we want to embody the Good News, it can only be done in a full giving of our full selves to each other. What does that mean? It means a lot of different things. Right now I would be remiss if I didn’t say that we are in the middle of the pledge drive season, so part of that giving does mean the giving of our financial resources because that is a part of ourselves. One way to think of it is that it is our stored labor, and giving of that to the community, to our neighbors in need, is a giving of ourselves as an act of love, the embodiment of Jesus’s teaching.
