Holy Week 2008 – Good Friday
March 21, 2008
Not to flood darkness with light so that the darkness is destroyed,
but to enter into darkness, mystery, so that it is experienced.
Denise Levertov
Holy Week 2008 – Maundy Thursday
March 20, 2008
Welcome to this service of remembrance. Tonight we will be together with each other as Jesus was with the disciples on his last night. We will begin with the servant ritual of foot washing that Jesus offered the disciples, and continue with a simple meal.
Lent 2008 – How Can This Be?
February 6 – March 20, 2008
REFLECTION
Through your radical surrender to God
you will be freed
and become a deliverer of others,
a breath of fresh air for those you meet,
a servant of all,
a source of life, expectation and hope.
How can this be?
Based on Rule for a New Brother by H. Van Der Looy
Epiphany 2008 – Entering the City of God
REFLECTION
Though it hardly seems possible now, we cling to the hope that God’s City will be established in the gift of the new heavens and the new earth. Our work is to live by the customs of the new City before it has fully come to be. In this way, the church draws the world to God. We hold forth not a condemning, but a welcoming word. All nations are invited to come to this City. And the quality of our interactions as a community will be a stronger witness than our words.
Gerrit Scott Dawson, "Called by a New Name"
Quoted in Voices of the Day (www.sojo.net )
Advent 2007 – Who’s Got the Power?
December 2 – December 23, 2007
REFLECTION
God saw the world falling into ruin because of fear and immediately acted to call it back with love. God invited it by grace, preserved it by love, and embraced it with compassion.
Peter Chrysologus, Fifth Century, An Advent Sourcebook pg.64
