Let's Relate

Our women at the tomb. Two amazing pastors.

Stories of Resurrection LIFE early this morning. Jesus is alive!

Sunrise Resurrection April 21 at 6am on Lemon Hill. More info at circleofhope.net/HolyWeek
.
The women went to the tomb early on the first day of the week and were met by angels who said, “Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; he has risen!” We rise in honor of these women’s early morning walk and greet this astounding news of our risen Savior on Lemon Hill in #Philadelphia
.
We begin just before sunrise at 6:00 am on April 21. There will be music and storytelling and a sweet ceremony celebrating our victory over the grave.
.
Bring a chair or blanket to sit on if you wish, wear warm layers for the cool morning, and celebrate with us at sunrise! #Phila #phillyevents #lemonhill #fairmount #Easter #sunrise #philly

Holy Week Day 5 - Stations of the Cross and Tenebrae
Friday, April 19 // Stations of the Cross and Tenebrae // Luke 22:47-23:56
.
Stations of the Cross // 12-3pm // local to congregations, more info at circleofhope.net/HolyWeek
.
Tenebrae Observance // 8pm // 2007 Frankford Ave.
Tenebrae is Latin for “darkness,” and on the evening of Good Friday we gather together to meditate on the death of Jesus, the lowest point of the Lent season. The sweetness of Easter will come, but for a little while we sit together in the bitterness of Good Friday like the shocked and terrified disciples after the crucifixion. At this vigil we reflect on the seven phrases, as recorded in the Gospels, which Jesus said as he hung on the cross. We are present with Jesus as he dies, and the room darkens until we enter the darkness of the tomb, and await the resurrection.

The news makes for a Psalm 107 litany of despair and frustration

My loved ones and I spontaneously constructed our own Psalm 107 yesterday as the news forced its way into our consciousness. I wrote a blog post about it. It was …

Our vision for a Common Fund is inspired by the earliest group of Jesus-followers who shared their resources so that needs were met and the joy of living in the kingdom of God was known. In our own time and place, we’ve discovered that sharing our resources brings freedom and unleashes power.
