Cedar Valley CCDA Connect met last night, and one of our activities was to write down and share a dream we have for our community. I'm inspired.
"People would unite and work to learn from each other."
"I dream our community is a place where all people live in decent homes, in safe, stable neighborhoods."
"A reconciliation between our different sides of town."
"I wish we would humbly accept the Divine call to live as one."
"To see students be able to break the bands of oppression (spiritual/physical) and find their way in and with Christ."
"To open a freewill payment or free local restaurant that is sustainable."
"I dream of a Waterloo with lots of well-kept, affordable housing of different sizes and types, with plenty of heat in the winter."
"I dream of warm acceptance and the 'meeting of eyes'."
"A grocery store in the Walnut Neighborhood."
"Neighbors get to know each other."
"Holistic program to do job-training, internships, job placement/retention, GED study, literacy, etc."
"All of us carrying each others' burdens."
