O God, by the leading of a star you manifested your only Son to the peoples of the earth: Lead us, who know you now by faith, to your presence, where we may see your glory face to face; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

(Context: Ruch verdict, and why I laughed out loud when I read it. They promised a verdict, we got a performance of sycophancy. Embarrassing.)
We'd have done it differently, so you're wrong.

Since July 2021, we have maintained our focus on survivors; we hope that if people have learned anything from our work over the past 4 years, it is to prioritize the vulnerable.

We invite you to light a candle and join us in our litany of remembrance from last night's service of lament. Stand near in the darkness, gracious God; comfort us in our pain.

Given all the grievous ACNA church news this week, hearing this sermon preached on Sunday beforehand strengthened my faith. If you're bewildered by what the verdict in the Ruch trial said (blame the survivors and advocates) then take a few minutes and listen to some truth. ⚓
"If John the Baptist [...] can wonder if he’s gotten it all wrong, how much more will we? And yet, we little ones, we insignificant ones, are greater—exceedingly more privileged and blessed—because of what we’ve received by grace."

Join us tonight!
Join us tomorrow at 7pm for a Liturgy of Lament. We understand that the cultural expectation of joy can be painful for many, and offer a gentle, contemplative space for those who find the holiday season difficult due to grief, loneliness, illness, or other struggles.

After today’s church news it’s good to sing a song of lament.
