How to Create a Welcoming Space

[image error]

Our hearts and lives are enriched through relationships with other people. I can’t imagine living in a community or doing work where there are neatly constructed borders that divide people. Rather, I see community, work, and family as opportune spaces to cultivate a sense of togetherness and shared destiny.

If you, too, would like to create welcoming spaces where all people feel safe, comfortable, and free to be themselves, here are a few ideas:

Open the Door to friendship and peace by inviting others into your space.

Set the Table by preparing a feast to generously share your abundance with others.

Create the Right Ambiance by promoting a climate of openness, kindness, warmth, respect, and appreciation.
