"Home is where you don't have to be anybody but yourself. You don't have to be good enough, clean enough, smart enough. You don't have to guard your heart, deny your mistakes or hide your wounds. You don't have to pretend to be somebody you are not so that you can belong. Because at home, you belong already. You are a child of God.
​
So, when in Mamre Oaks, we say to you: come in, come as you are. Come in, come and dance with us!"
