Becoming with the Sacred Earth

Sabbath is an invitation to enter a portal of timelessness, of the eternal now. We “set apart” time to stop and remove ourselves from the hectic busy-ness and noise of modern civilization.

It is to witness the ever present but unnoticed interconnectedness of the True Beloved Community which includes all that is, and perhaps to become consciousness of our oneness with all, in the Body of God. Oneness with the elements, the grasses and trees, the animals, birds, fish, and insects, the plants and lichen and fungi… Oneness with people of colors and genders, with the indigenous ones who have long mastered the ways to live with the rhythms and regions of earth.

So, during Eastertide, we will reflect on the resurrection of Jesus for insight into how we might live into our resurrections (renewals) more fully.

Easter and our Divine Story

Jesus is Risen!    He is Risen Indeed!”
