“The apples are longing to be planted in your yard.
They want you to put down your roots with them here in your Community now
When Dostoyevsky wrote about the renewal in the orchard, he talked about 100 years.
That hundred years is now.
He knew that he was speaking to us now, he meant us.
We are it.”
