We can be givers, too.

Jesus invites us to walk in the light, side by side.

How often do we hear the call - and go? How often do we recognize the one who was sent?

Rather than being filled-to-overflowing with burdens, we could be filled-to-overflowing in the generous love of a God that gives us all things, including wonder, awe and joy.

Even the wisest of men have human faults - which we recognize because of our own nature. Still, we are capable of loving, and being loved - and forgiven.

Confession and redemption

God is strong enough to fill our empty places.

God's love is big enough to encompass all of our complexities.

Baptism sends each new Christian into the world equipped with a sacred relationship to God and the community.

Through word and touch, we are no longer set apart; Jesus calls us to community and sacred life.
