"The Rung of Faith"

Mark 5:25-34  

Now there was a woman who had been suffering from hemorrhages for twelve years. She had endured much under many physicians and had spent all that she had; and she was no better, but rather grew worse. She had heard about Jesus and came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak, for she said, “If I but touch his clothes, I will be made well.” Immediately her hemorrhage stopped; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her disease. Immediately aware that power had gone forth from him, Jesus turned about in the crowd and said, “Who touched my clothes?” And his disciples said to him, “You see the crowd pressing in on you; how can you say, ‘Who touched me?’” He looked all around to see who had done it. But the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came in fear and trembling, fell down before him, and told him the whole truth. He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace and be healed of your disease.”

*NEW* Agape MCC’s Holiday Series



"Ladder to the Light"

This series based on the visions and wisdom teachings of Steven Charleston, a member of the the Choctaw Nation, former Episcopal Bishop of Alaska, and President and Dean of the Episcopal Divinity School. Our guide will be his most recent book, Ladder to the Light; An Indigenous Elder’s Meditations on Hope and Courage.  

We will be climbing the ladder slowly throughout the upcoming holiday season, including Advent, and our ascent will culminate on Christmas Eve. Please join us beginning this Sunday as we make the descent into the Kiva. If you are practicing virtually, you have the advantage of creating your own sacred space and time for our gatherings. It should be a space that evokes cave energy, solitude, and closeness to the earth. We will talk more about that at this week’s gathering. See you in the Kiva.

The Community Fall Festival was a great success! We had participation from St. Anne's, Agape' MCC and our Forest Hill neighbors! Thank you to each and everyone of you who made this event possible and those who participated.

Here is a link to Rev. David's tour of the festival!

Imagine at some moment two strong arms enfold you, two great wings rise above you, and you are suddenly lifted up. Lifted up from where you were standing, lifted up out of the shadows, lifted up and carried away. In that moment imagine all of your cares falling away, your worries dropping like stones, until you feel lighter, as weightless as a feather caught on a breeze. Imagine you and the Spirit flying in a clear sky, flying for the sheer joy of it, far beyond the reach of any hurt or harm. Imagine what you believe and it will carry you to a place of strength, of hope, and of love.



Steven Charleston, Daily Meditation, October 29, 2021

Precious God, in the many ways we know you:

Thank you for blessing us another year - year 53 for UFMCC. Thank you for our heritage, for the calling of Troy Perry that continued to spiral into thousands of other callings all over this world. Thank you for the many days of rejoicing we've shared, and for the challenges that arose - opportunities for us to improve. 

God, during this worldwide pandemic, we've found new ways to BE church, not just ways to DO church. We have ventured into unfamiliar territory, and we're still finding our way. Continue to send your Spirit, our Guide, the One we can trust to lead us all the way through. 

Sweet Spirit, come on the wings of angels and archangels. Help us to continue being the hands, feet, heart, and voice of Christ on earth. Anoint us with the refreshing winds of Pentecost to do the work that started 53 years ago. We look forward - believing, trusting, listening.

In the name of Jesus our Christ and all that is Holy.

Amen.
