Rev. Karen BlombergJanuary 5, 1954 - July 21, 2008… Memories …
Golden Toes Before embarking on the last Quest of her life, Karen, had her toenails painted golden. In her memory, others have chosen to emulate her. These toes belong to Eben, Erica, Lucas and Willow Jahnke, members of Karen's extended chosen family.
Just as you created your own garden studying dreaming, and locating the plot of land Just as you prepared the soil tilling and turning, using your whole self As you readied the earth Just as you carefully and gently set in the seeds with hopes that each was in its proper spot to receive the right amount of sun and shade Just as you nurtured each new sprout to put down strong roots by gently weeding and watering And then waited patiently for the fruit to flower and ripen each in its own time and in its own season So also have you done at Westminster Karen's Garden
Karen saw Procession everywhere … Procession … In a stream of ants … People lined up at the grocery store … Practitioners on their mindfulness walk She called us to find our place and hold it in procession with one another.
