Excerpt from The Gift: Poems by Hafiz, borrowed from my Chaplain colleague Dale McAbee
After
All this time
The sun never says to the earth, "You owe
Me." Look
What happens
With a love like that,
It lights the
Whole Sky.

TCU students helping refugees fill out job applications and prepare for interviews. We had about 160 students serve at various sites around Fort Worth. We even had an Interfaith service group. MLK would be proud!

Greater Toledo Islamic Center
The mosque rises out of the northwestern Ohio cornfields, a reminder of America's pluralism. I stopped in and chatted with two founding members and snapped some pictures. The center has around 400 members, and 30 students in their Islamic school. Established in 1982, they hope to add on to the complex by expanding the school and building a residential community. I was surprised to hear that this was just one of 5 Islamic centers in Toledo, an illustration of just how religiously diverse America is becoming.
