If you drive south on Interstate 95, you will cross over Lake Hartwell in Georgia. In Hartwell, Georgia, a man has put a sign in the front of his little church that reads, “The tired, the poor, the huddled masses. Welcome Home.”

Our little Pierson Point Community celebrates July 4th in a big way. A 100-pound pig is cooked. Sides include slaw, Brunswick stew, baked beans, squash casserole, watermelon, beer and banana pudding to round out the menu. But before the meal there is the Pierson Point Parade.

Sometimes, people write me and raise curiosity in my mind. The writer says that he and his wife “moved away from Methodism because of the ‘gay agenda’.” While we are probably better off, I have thought about what he could mean by the “gay agenda”?

I saw him from the window. I should not have opened the door. There he stood. He was not shaken in my presence. He stood his ground. He had large ears and scrawny legs. He said his name was Peter. We had a moment.

“Summertime… and the living is easy. Fish are jumping and the cotton is high.” Anticipation of summer parties, cookouts and pool parties. Beach trips and lake trips, and our favorite, the Neuse River.

Warm spring afternoons bring the neighborhood children out to play. Laughter rings out and bikes are everywhere in the cul-de-sac, almost like it’s Daytona.

I must go down to the sea again…to the lonely sea and the sky. And all I ask…. is for highway 12 to be rebuilt. And for county, state or federal money to pay for beach renourishment, so my house will not be swept into the ocean.

The list of toxic accidents in the United States is long. I use the term accidents loosely, because some of the toxicity that has poisoned land and river is a consequence of bad decisions, disregard for the safety of people and animals, and a general carelessness of creation.

When NBC news host, Lester Holt said there had been 68 mass shootings in 2023, my mouth dropped. That’s more mass shootings than days so far in 2023.

You are almost home. Your family is gathered, whispering sweet words of gratitude and blessing for your exemplary life. We all thank you for the witness of a good and gracious life. Prayers for ease and peace in this transition.

You don’t need to go to Florida for sunshine. Sunshine is lighting the way here in North Carolina as the “Don’t Say Gay” bill, also presented as the “Parents Bill of Rights” bill is making its way through the legislature, soon to become law.

I love light. I have twinkle lights all over the yard and keep lights burning inside and outside most of the time. When I look around at the lamps we have, I realize they tell a story of the life Tom and I have lived together for nearly 58 years.

Reading his bio, it sounds like William Barber II was destined for the role of prophet from the time he was 15. Leadership in NAACP and student government as a teenager prepared him all the roles he is now undertaking.
