Becoming Beloved Community |
|
As the Episcopal branch of the Jesus Movement, we dream and work to foster Beloved Communities where all people may experience dignity and abundant life and see themselves and others as beloved children of God. |
|
|
StorySharing—not storytelling—because relationship matters, story matters. We will deeply listen to one another’s unique stories without fixing or solving... we will practice witnessing each other, just as we are.
This Thursday (Feb. 18), we will explore wilderness. We will answer the question What does it mean for me to follow Jesus into the wilderness at this particular moment?
Join us in Becoming Beloved Community during Lent. All are welcome!
