Thy Kingdom Come starts May 25

Join us for nine days of prayer between Ascension Day (Thursday, May 25) and Pentecost (Sunday, June 4) as we participate in Thy Kingdom Come, an initiative of Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby that calls Christians around the world to pray as one that others will come to know Jesus Christ .

Each day from Friday, May 26, through Saturday, June 3, we will post on this site images and meditations from “Nine Days of Prayer 2017, Conversations in the In-Between,” one of the many resources from the Thy Kingdom Come website.

More excellent resources are available at Thy Kingdom Come website with  suggestions for ways churches, individuals, and families can engage Thy Kingdom Come. (www.thykingdomcome.global)

We invite you to share these posts with those for whom you pray.

Their Eyes Were Opened – Easter 2016

A study for the Easter Season, beginning April 3, 2016.

Even as we face into Holy Week and that journey that Christ must take — and we must take with him — we remember that Good Friday is not the end of anything. Rather, it points us to Easter Day, which is the beginning of something that we humans could never have imagined.

We invite you to plan now to continue to engage the glory of Easter Day throughout the Easter Season, that time between the day of resurrection and the day of Pentecost, as together we consider a new framework for our lives.

Using resurrection stories from the Gospel of Luke, during the Easter Season we will walk with the first disciples as they encounter the risen Christ in the breaking of bread, sharing a meal, and walking and talking with them. We will reflect on how Christ continues to reveal himself to us today and how we can live as resurrected people.

The seven-week Easter Season study will offer weekly lessons and will be useful for congregations, small groups, and individuals. It begins April 3.

We will begin posting for this study on March 28. To receive posts in your email inbox, subscribe to this website at the bottom right of the home page, or in the upper right column from inside pages.
