I love your Sunday gatherings! We are trying to make sacred spaces for families but find it's a challenge to find the right time and space!

I love this. I recognised a few years ago that I am quite bad at playing! I don't like fancy dress parties, I prefer deep talks to board games, I have struggled to dance in company... I think it's linked to looking "silly" for me - there's shame somehow associated with silliness and so I avoid it. Recognising that though allows me to offer gentle invitations to play, and my kids have been a huge encouragement in that too. I draw and colour more often, dance more often, and am even trying to understand the whole roleplay world that they are getting into. My hope is it all contributes to that "soul care" as you describe it.

(and thanks for the shoutout!)
