"The Rung of Blessing"

Matthew 26:6-13  

Jesus was in Bethany. He was in the home of Simon, who had a skin disease. A woman came to Jesus with a special sealed jar of very expensive perfume. She poured the perfume on his head while he was at the table. When the disciples saw this, they became angry. “Why this waste?” they asked. “The perfume could have been sold at a high price. The money could have been given to poor people.” Jesus was aware of this. So he said to them, “Why are you bothering this woman? She has done a beautiful thing to me. You will always have poor people with you. But you will not always have me. She poured the perfume on my body to prepare me to be buried. What I’m about to tell you is true. What she has done will be told anywhere this good news is preached all over the world. It will be told in memory of her.

*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.

What We Do

TAFB supplies nutritious food to our partners in 13 North Texas counties- but before it is sent out, volunteers sort, inspect, and repackage the food in Quality Control. 

ALL Volunteers (age 12 and up) in the Distribution Center are REQUIRED to be Vaccinated. Your Vaccine Card and I.D will be checked upon entering the building.

The City of Forest Hill Police Department is sponsoring an elementary school age coat drive and has asked for our help. They are needing either new or slightly used coats for the kids. You can drop off your donations at Agape' and we will make sure they are delivered to the FHPD. The plan is to distribute the coats to the children during 2 separate events. The first will be at Thanksgiving and the second event will be the first week in December. Thank you in advance for all you do to support our community.

Like an old tree. That’s what I am going to be like. That’s what I have already been. A tree on the hill, bent by more rough seasons than can be remembered, but deep-rooted, solid, stubborn in the will to live. I am going to be like that. Not because I am so strong or wise or experienced, but because I believe. I am not on this hill by accident. It is the place chosen for me to make my witness. It is the ground of my life. Like an old tree, it is where I make my stand.



Steven Charleston, Daily Meditation, November 02, 2021

If you missed Rev. David on FaceBook Live for an All Souls Day/Día de los Muertos blessing last Tuesday, November 2nd, click on the image below.

Oh, Divine Gracious Mother of all that is, we thank you for the beautiful and precious love that you have imbued each of us with. We pray, reflect, and are conscious of this great gift that you, Oh Divine Feminine Grace, have imparted to us, through us, and around all that is. For it is in this divine, perfect, and gracious Love that healing truly takes place. 

So let each of us be still and meditate on this wondrous Love that flows from You, Oh Queen of the Universe. 

As the sacred scripture says: 

“Be still and know that I am God.” Psalm 46: 10

And this: 

“God will fight for you; you need only to be still.” Exodus 14:14

And so it is; may God let it be so.
