Community is witness; each member in this moment and that moment
Community has hands to pick you up and to clap for you
Community has legs to stand beside everyone
Community has arms to open the doors for others
Community has lips that release the truth
Community is hearts beating together and individually
Community accepts the old and the new
Community knows cycles and seasons
Community is extension beyond its denomination
Community is a destination not recognized by mapquest
Community is a place…community is compassion

A poem by Melanie Klug
