Wellspring is an expression of
service of the highest level.
In recognition that we are all truly connected,
all suffering is our suffering,
all healing is our healing;
individuals offer themselves
in unconditional support to others
in times of need.
Wellspring is truly anabundant
source of compassionate giving
and sharing in a safe and loving environment.
It is with awe and a sense of honor
that I experience Wellspring.
