Letter from the Director! February 10, 2017

 

From the Director:

February is the month in which we celebrate Valentine’s Day — the day of love. Saint Valentine was, by accounts, repeatedly arrested and finally executed simply for practicing his faith and for marrying couples who were not legally allowed to wed in 3rd century Rome. In the 21st century, there are still those who would place barriers to love and build walls out of fear of those who are different from themselves. At times when love and compassion seem in danger of giving way to fear, blame, and hate, let us remember that love is universal. It is everywhere — in everyone. It knows no boundaries. It cannot be stopped at the border. It needs no visa.

“A coward is incapable of exhibiting love; it is the prerogative of the brave.” – Mahatma Gandhi
