Slowing Down and Warming Up
Hello there!

It has been wonderful to see so many of you online recently. We are seriously grateful for the community of people that has been gathering to learn together and socially connect as we all navigate this new, complex context together. For us, the tug of multiple competing realities & paradoxes has kept things lively. The last couple of weeks have been a wildly active time responding to emergent needs, even as things around us are slowing down.

Austin, where we¡¯re writing this from, is starting to get hot. The heat makes slowing down feel pretty normal. We see people on long, meandering walks throughout the day, waving to each other. Getting groceries takes quite a while, and people visit in line, standing on designated spots in line with six feet between them. We all seem to be trying to stay connected to the world as we maintain our physical distance from the people around us. There is a sweetness to people finding ways to connect across new and unfamiliar boundaries, amidst the strangeness and difficulty of our current context.

In this mailer, we've got a couple new things for you: a ; a , and more .
