Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day to all!
As I think about this day, I think about love of course, but I also think about service. Valentine's Day is a reminder of all the people we love, as well as the people who love well, which is often through service. On the list of people who love and serve well, Mother Teresa is definitely near the top, a great servant and lover of all people. As I consider what it means to love, I think of the sacrifice that it takes. We can learn so much about love from a woman like Mother Teresa. She knew what it meant to be "the hands and feet" of Christ, to love the unloveable. A great quote from Mother Teresa says, "Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love." Consider this quote as you go about Valentine's Day. May you love those near and dear to your heart, and also those who may need love today.
Thinking of our kids in Zambia and thankful for our staff that love and care for them so well.
