There are many interpretations about what we are supposed to be doing as a church – rituals, building community and justice, are just a few. Liturgy, sometimes interpreted as the work of the people, calls us to make micro experiments in beloved community creation. Let’s explore how our care of land and collaboration with the planet helps us to dig deeper into our mission in our communities.
Chalice Lighting
This is the flame we hold in our hearts as we strive for justice for everyone. This is the light we shine upon systems of oppression until they are no more. This is the warmth that we share with one another as our struggle becomes our salvation.
