Matthew 5:17–19
Jesus said, “Do not think that I have come to abolish the law or the prophets; I have come not to abolish but to fulfill. For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth pass away, not one letter, not one stroke of a letter, will pass from the law until all is accomplished. Therefore, whoever breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches others to do the same, will be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does them and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven."
Where do we find HOPE in the midst of chaos? Jesus promises faithfulness to the end, as we read above, and yet we look at the world, we wonder, where is Jesus. Where is that faithfulness? Don’t you see what is going on down here?!?!
Whether you are worried about upcoming elections, violence in our city, the presence of evil in our world, your struggles and worries, or just the frustration of everyday life… I hope you will join us the next Three Wednesdays for our Lenten Dinner program with Brown Memorial and Corpus Cristi.
The Program is entitled Finding Hope in Uncertain Times
With the myth of the inevitability of progress wrenched from dominant public discourse, many are facing the painful reality of a world that seems to be drifting away from the future that our faith promises. How do we find the energy to continue building toward that holy vision when things get worse, not better? How do we persevere when our actions for a just world seem inconsequential? Join members of Brown Memorial Presbyterian, Memorial Episcopal, and Corpus Christi Roman Catholic churches for dinner at 5:30, followed by education and discussion on these questions of finding hope in uncertain times.
In moments of chaos and uncertainty, it is most important to not feel alone. Coming together as a community is a wonderful way to ensure you are not alone!
So please do join us.
