@rev_becks For children I offer for them to just touch the ashes, have them on their hand, or forehead. I think it’s important to offer options to engage with the ritual that don’t take away from the purpose.

If you don't believe the Holy Spirit unmuted her mic so that we too could believe that "We can do spaghetti" then you ain't truly tapped in! 😅 #ga225

@RevA1ex You sounded very convincing and authoritative. Still proud over here!

@presbyGA #dogsofGA are snoring so loud I had to turn volume up

[Lauren Slingerland @SLSlingerland]

These tech issues are very frustrating #ga225 I hear folks voicing anger that the process can’t work fairly since co-mods don’t have access to accurate SessionSync info in the toolbox
