And this is the judgment, that the light has come into the world… John 3:19

When the church is doing its work in the world it deals in healing therapies and substances. The liturgies, the word spoken and heard, the water of baptism, the bread and wine of communion, the rituals of movement, the moments of prayer. All these have healing properties. They heal our hearts, our thoughts, our feelings, our emotions, our bodies.

Sunday we will turn to the order for healing in our book of worship and take time to think about places in our lives that need healing, people we know, trouble we’ve read about or experienced.

The first step in becoming a community of healing is to acknowledge that healing is needed, called for, desired, somewhere by someone.

It’s the end of our Family Promise host weeks. We’ll hear from our coordinators how everything went.

The new prayer group meets during the education hour 11 am.

Rejoicing Spirits at 4 pm.
