Tragedy is rocking our lives in recent weeks. With numerous acts of senseless violence around the country—including the April 15 shooting at the FedEx Plainfield Operations Center, just 30 minutes from Franklin College—our hearts are in pain. What can we as a community do in the face of such loss? In this community check-in, Chaplain Hannah offers a vision for caring for ourselves and uplifting our community through traumatic events. She explains how to interpret the many emotions that can flood our thinking in response to tragedy, and what we can do to help both ourselves and each other. In the face of injustice, one of the best actions we can take is to look around—and within.
