Richmond Hill, Ontario, Canada - L'Arche Canada Foundation Daily Thought with Jean Vanier for Sunday, 28 September 2014 "Rejoicing"
Celebration is a specific act of a community as people rejoice and give thanks to [God] who has bonded them together and is looking after them and loves them. They are no longer individuals locked up in their own loneliness and independence. They are one body and each of them has their place in the body. Celebration is a cry of joy from all of them covenanted together, for they have been led through the passage of loneliness to love, of discouragement to hope.(Jean Vanier, Community and Growth, page 313)
