Hospitality

"Hospitality, therefore, means primarily the creation of a free space where the stranger can enter and become a friend instead of an enemy.  Hospitality is not to change people, but to offer them space where change can take place."
Henri Nouwen Reaching Out, 71

"To convert hostility into hospitality requires the creation of the friendly empty space where we can reach out to our fellow human beings and invite them to a new relationship"
Henri Nouwn Reaching Out, 76

Thank you Monson family for leading by example.
