Sometimes literal is good

Foot WashingThere is far more going on in John 13:1-15 than a literal obedience to wash one another's feet would capture. Still it was enligtening to actually participate in the literal washing of feet. The sense of contact with another. It wasn't just ritual as we'd just finished painting with our feet so they needed real scrubing. We shared our common hesitancy to show our feet to one another. We took the chance to pray for each person as their feet were washed. I was truly moved.

Sarah and I spent Saturday afternoon with some folk from Xalt working on art for their Sunday evening gathering.

- Peace
