Reimagining life together as followers of Jesus to join God’s work of renewal in our place through practices that ground us in the love of God and neighbor.
JOIN US FOR THE ADVENT SEASON // SUNDAYS @ 10 AM
Join us for a very special advent season as we join in the collective groan and lament for peace on earth. We will stand in the midst of darkness, great upheaval, injustice, and suffering, and we will light a candle and pray, Come, Lord Jesus, come. We practice peace in a hundred and one small ways and yet we long and groan and pray for peace to come in its fullness. We do not gloss over the divisions, horrors of war, gross injustices, suffering, and oppression of our day. Rather we choose to awaken to the groaning in our communities and our neighborhoods and we groan too, allowing our hearts to break and to grieve and to repent. Yet we are not overcome with despair. No, we are people of great hope. For Christ has come. Christ is here. And Christ is coming again. And He is bringing wholeness to everything and everyone and healing all that divides us. And so we can be confident that peace is surely coming here on earth, around our dinner tables, zoom calls, classrooms, and playgrounds. So let it begin with us.
