      1. Guided Inquiry
      2. Questions to contemplate: How is grieving an act of love? How can collective grieving with others be a practice of solidarity and a revolutionary act? How can the practice of wonder help us to love and grieve with others, even those we do not know? What is at stake for us when we grieve together? What is to be gained? What is lost when we have failed to grieve as a nation?
    2. Next steps with Julica

        What have we learned 90+ days in? What are our edges and areas where we are crushing things? How are we embodying multicultural, multigenerational ministry? What would it mean to more fully embody this work at all levels in our system?  Where are we living our best life as a shared board/minister team? Where are our growing edges? What systems do we want to fine tune?
