Welcoming encompasses so many different aspects of life, not only hospitality, but an opening up of one self to thoughts, ways and people. Kindness, and openness, recognizing that indeed everyone is fighting a battle of some type whether we may see it or not. When I did an image search for the word Welcoming, the third picture in was a picture of Our Lord, standing with his arms open and stretched outward to those in front of him. That is what I want to be!!!!
