It is rare that women across cultures have the opportunity to "take the time" to share faith stories and discuss local/global concerns and how we can care for those concerns wherever we live our lives to make a difference for the sake of the future for ALL.....
The UMW Ubuntu Lithuania mission trip provided such an opportunity for me and our team. So many times I heard various ones share how connected we are even when apart by our passion to care beyond ourselves and for our neighbor. It seemed to me that we all came with a desire to not only share but to "be" together through our prayer times, fun and creative times and experiencing the "mystery" of the Other in us all. I am very thankful to the UMW for offering this possibility, and to all the US and Lithuanian women who ventured forth to explore being One in the Spirit for the sake of a more unified and understanding world on behalf of ALL.....
