Bunker, Oasis, or Beacon?

When I was younger, my family often visited Cape Cod for summer vacations.  Our family’s cottage was near a lighthouse, and I became captivated by the lighthouse keepers’ duty, purpose, and obligations that tended to them until their automation.  Growing up, I wanted to be a lighthouse keeper but was disappointed when I learned that there were very few.  Instead, I became a minister.  How is a faith community like a bunker, an oasis, or like a beacon? 

The Rev. Aaron Stockwell Wisman (pronounced like Wise-man) is the Senior Minister of the First Parish of Framingham, MA.  A graduate of Lesley College and Andover Newton Theological School, he has served UU congregations in MA, TX, and KS. He enjoys cooking, hiking, and the spiritual practice of lectio divina. He and his wife Lizzie live in Framingham and share their home with their dog, Nox.
