Hospitality
This worship year, in the wake of the historic 2024 United Methodist Church General Conference decision to open our doors, hearts, and minds to all God’s people, regardless of sexual or affectional orientation, we sense God calling us to live deeply into our calling to hospitality.
Our key verse for the year is Hebrews 13:2: “Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by doing that some have entertained angels without knowing it.”
See the plan for the year. We plan to devote 6-8 Sundays on eight in-depth explorations of Christian hospitality.
