May John Lewis and C. T. Vivian Rest In God’s Peace and may we, like them, rise up to claim the high call of love, never to cease laboring for a just and humane society and world, always showing compassion, and daily living humbly with God until all God’s children are free.

For D.C.’s historically underserved communities, the coronavirus emergency echoes longstanding issues of food access. This is especially true east of the Anacostia River, where there are only three major grocery stores to cover all of wards 7 and 8. wamu.fm/2TYaSlq

Keep watch, dear Lord with those who work or watch or weep this night, and give your angels charge over those who sleep. Tend the sick, Lord Christ; give rest to the weary, bless the dying, soothe the suffering, pity the afflicted, shield the joyous; and all for your love's sake.

A moment of silence today from the crew in memory of Jens Nygaard Knudsen, creator of the minifig. Because of him, everyone is always smiling, and everything is just a little more awesome.

Today is #ShroveTuesday, the day before the start of #Lent. The name is derived from the word shrive, meaning to absolve. It is a day of penitence when Christians confess their sins and receive forgiveness, as well as a day of celebration before the abstinence of Lent.

Like many of the men and women born into slavery, Frederick Douglass did not know his exact date of birth. The abolitionist leader and civil rights champion adopted February 14 as his birthday. #BlackHistoryMonth

I am here, you are here, we are here, not because of anything we did, but because God is love. We are made in love. And Jesus said “I give you a new command: Love one another. Just like God loves you. You are to love one another just as the God who made you." Love like that.
