When a large gathering of people is cancelled because getting lots of people together is a public health risk, you probably shouldn't organize a large gathering of people in its place to fill the void. I know it sucks to lose out on travel costs but public health is priceless.

A priest knocking on Rantidev's door so different than "Please sir may I have some more" Athiti welcoming all and washing feet Even those from Ferenzi #poetryport (quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/s/PKLDY)

Some sad
truths told
in Genesis,
yet Lot, so named
for his theoxenia,
Angels welcomed
only by "Lot's wife"
who served food
wine, and life
her angles promised
to strangers
left as pillar of salt
a bitter reward for
glancing at home
