As the leaves fell and the votes were counted a new banner rose on the Unitarian Universalist Meetinghouse on Middle Street. It proclaims “Help Mother” with an image of Mother Earth. Congregation member Sally Waite, who has been making banners in Gloucester since Covid 19 and in Portland for years before that, loves Gloucester’s Babson Boulders. Sewed into her new banner, Roger Babson’s nearly 100 year old message about family responsibility takes on a new meaning, reminding us to respect the interdependent web of existence we all depend on.
