Today’s Advent Sharing comes from Jody London.  She is a resident of the neighborhood where I work as pastor, an elected member of  the Oakland Unified School District School Board, representing District 1.  She’s passionate about local schools, the city of Oakland and the environment.  She even rode in the rain on her bike to meet with me – on her way to work.  I’m blessed by her smile and zeal each time I run into her around our town.    In keeping with the theme of listening in Advent and talking with each other, here’s her video response to the questions : What gives you hope these days? and What do you think we should be talking about?
