·         Remember who we are and why we are here, and

·         Rekindle creativity and passion for life.

PRACTICE:  Every time you take an intentional Sabbath time (5 minutes, 1 hour, 1 day, etc.) beginning with the WWC Sabbath Opening Refrain, record it on your SJS journal along with any reflections on your Sabbath practice. 

JUBILEE: Redefining how much is enough in a hyper-consumer society, in order to:

·         Restore value to life and relationships in a capitalistic economy,

·         Release ourselves and others from the burdens of debt, wealth or poverty, and

·         Reduce the negative ecological impact of our lives on the planet.

PRACTICE:  Choose one financial document (credit card bill, bank statement, checkbook, etc.) each month and in light of our Jubilee definition, ponder/pray about “how much is enough” for you.  Record any reflections in your SJS journal.

SHALOM: Recognizing the inherent wholeness and unity of all creation, in order to:

·         Restore the birthright of all people to live without violence and to be treated with dignity,

·         Re-establish relationships of forgiveness and healing with others, including the earth and those who may be considered our "enemies," and

·         Re-create continually the conditions for peace in the midst of world cultures obsessed with war.

PRACTICE: Post the Shalom Covenant throughout your house, at your work place, on your computer, wherever you will see it regularly.  Seek to practice the Shalom Covenant in all your relationships – private and public, with human and non-human beings.   Record any reflections in your SJS journal. 

You are invited to bring your SJS journal to the fourth Sunday WWC gatherings.
