Merry Christmas, Blue Sky!

Our gratitude begins with wonder: that the Creator of all things chose to be held, to be known, and to be named.

Friends, a most wonder-ful Christmas to you and yours, from all of us at Day1!

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.
