Sister Kathleen Coughlin's Blessing Before Chamber Board of Directors Meeting

Before the Chamber's Board of Directors Meeting on April 23, Sister Cathleen Coughlin, Senior Advisor to the President, University of the Incarnate Word, shared the following blessing:

Let us remember God is nearby and not far away as we pray.....

May we who are merely inconvenienced remember those whose lives are at stake.

May we who have no risk factors remember those most vulnerable.

May we who have the luxury of working from home remember those who must choose between preserving their health or making their rent.

May we who have the flexibility to care for our children when their schools close remember those who have no options.

May we who have to cancel our trips remember those that have no safe place to go.

May we who are losing our margin money in the tumult of the economic market remember those who have no margin at all.

May we who settle in for a quarantine at home remember those who have no home. As fear grips our city, state, country and the world, let us choose love.

May we never again take for granted a handshake with a stranger, full shelves at the stores, dedicated essential personnel.

When this ends may we become more like the people we wanted to be - better for each other because of the worst!

Amen

My territory includes San Antonio, Austin, Smithville, El Paso, Midland-Odessa, Del Rio, Eagle Pass, Laredo, the Rio Grande Valley, and Corpus Christi.
