Welcome to our urban village church...
Minister’s Message
The Family Circle in the cartoon section, had a recent comic where it had snowed, dad is outside shoveling with all the children, in their excitement the three older ones were babbling. PJ, the baby, expresses the wish “if they could stop talking they could hear the quiet.”
The season of Lent is like that – if we can stop our babble, we can hear the silence and in the silence we will discover a ‘oneness with God’.
As we live through the Lenten season, I’d invite all of us to spend time in silence, prayer and reflection. Let’s take this time to affirm our divine wholeness … and release thoughts and patterns that no longer serve us.
So that we are open to the message of Easter that, “Transformation is possible!” When we are open—mind, body and spirit—to embracing our Christ potential, we can create the life we are called to live.
We do this journeying together as the people of God. In community, we find support, encouragement and challenge to live into the invitation of life, with all its abundance. We are Easter People, who hear the affirmation of God!
Blessings
