While It’s Still Today

The Anointed Ones

Pastor Josh Hilburn opens the scripture in Acts to explore Jesus' "sending" of his followers; a people chosen and called to continue his ministry. The Resurrection means that we as the Church, the ecclesia, the "called out ones", are no longer spectators or guests, but instead hosts of the continuing celebration, performing signs and wonders in community, pointing toward Heaven, and orienting our whole lives toward participation with God's renewing work in our world.

Ash Wednesday

On Ash Wednesday, we gathered for a time of contemplation; preparing our hearts for the Lenten journey that awaits. We prayed in repentance, lifted voices in worship, and received ashes as a reminder not only of our mortality and brokenness, but also as a reminder of our identity as God's beloved children. Our hope is that each of us would be changed in these coming weeks; that in setting certain distractions, vices, and comforts aside, we might create space for God to transform us in ways that would continue far beyond our Resurrection celebration.

Here are pieces from our Ash Wednesday liturgy.
