SUMMARY:When We Are Living: JFON Celebration
DESCRIPTION:“Besides\, in all these matters there is a huge chasm set between us so that no one can go from us to you even if he wanted to\, nor can anyone cross over from you to us.” \n~Luke 16:26 \n“My soul magnifies the Lord\, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior… \nHe has brought down the powerful from their thrones and lifted up the lowly; \nhe has filled the hungry with good things and sent the rich away empty. \n~Luke 1: 1 and 52-53 \nThis week\, the parable found in the Gospel of Luke is of a world turned upside down\, or rather it is a tale of right living. Luke opens his Gospel with a song of Mary that proclaims that the poor will be filled with good things and the rich will be sent way\, empty handed. In the parable of Lazarus and the rich man we hear Jesus speaking of the powerful being brought down and the lowly lifted up. It is a call for justice. It is a call for holy living. It is an invitation to build the kingdom of God. As we celebrate God’s love we will hear of the work and ministry of Justice for Our Neighbors. JFON of Kalamazoo is housed in our church as we partner with them to help provide pro bono legal services to immigrants living in Michigan communities. Let us hear the call to create expanse love guided by the Holy Spirit. \nJoin us in person or online for worship on Sundays at 10am. Before you join us for in person worship\, please review our updated mask optional practice.
