Member Regina Roman wrote to celebrate how the inaugural events connected with Spiritual Directors International conference in Washington, DC:
One item that stood out for me that I wanted to share with you is the wonderful benediction Rev. Joseph Lowery gave after President Obama's speech. He used the words of President Washington that Spiritual Directors International used for the worldwide silent meditation at the conference in March 2008. I could not help but ponder that, when we allow the prayer to pray itself, it becomes much larger than any one of us. Spiritual Directors International offered a prophetic prayer whose thread continued to flow into January at the inauguration.
Perhaps it may be an nudge to invite all members to continue to ponder what we are being called into at the deepest levels. It warmed my heart to witness Spiritual Directors International at the edges of change.
Blessings upon your day,
Regina

It was a powerful prayer when I first heard it on Inauguration Day, and it became an even more powerful prayer listening to it again this evening on YouTube!! All members of our Congress should receive a copy of this from their constituents. I know mine will.
