Clean Bots & Care of Others


I was really struck and moved by this photo and post on the Parallax Inc. - Robots for Education Facebook Page. Like other businesses, educational facilities, churches, etc., we are all dealing with the COVID-19 virus. I am especially mindful of my friends at Parallax, my friend, Carol Lynn Hazlett, in Seatle, and all of our friends around the globe like Eric Ostendorff, and Nikos Giannakopoulos. This photo inspired me because it symbolizes the way the Church here in Western Louisiana and the Episcopal Church in the US, and indeed all of us, are or should be addressing this crisis. As our Bishop recently wrote, "We should all take precautions because we are people of love. You see, we do not take precautions merely to protect ourselves individually from infection. On the contrary, if each of us takes reasonable, common-sense steps, we reduce the likelihood that other, more vulnerable members of our community will contract the contagion. We are all in this together." Way to go Team Parallax!
