Pray with Us / 2024
Throughout 2024, we’re coming together as a community each month to pray around a particular theme that impacts our city and world. In April, join us in praying for children impacted by the realities of abuse. This month’s prayer (click here to download) was crafted by Sarah Bowman; our artwork (view here) was created by Sam Bowman.
UCC HAPPENINGS / Spring 2024
Join together for justice:
On Sunday, April 14th (immediately after worship) the UCC Justice Group will circle-up for the first time this calendar year to catch-up, pray, and discuss focus and direction for the year ahead. All are welcome. Feel free to pack a lunch and nourish yourself as we meet together.
Thanks be to God!
On Sunday, April 21st (immediately after worship) please join us for lunch(!) and our Annual Meeting. This will be a time to celebrate the ways we've seen God move in the last fiscal year, and look forward with great hope, expectation, and prayer for what's to come. This is also the day we affirm folks stepping into new roles of leadership and vote on our annual budget. The Lead Team and Staff will be providing the main dish (taco bar!), and we're asking the community to bring a side-dish or dessert to share. See you there!
Care for thy body:
Join us for an hour of stretching and breathing at UCC on the following Monday evenings, 7pm: April 29th, May 7th, May 13th, May 20th. All levels welcome.
Serve the city:
Save the date for Wednesday, May 29th for our next evening meal service at City Gospel Mission. If you have questions about this effort or care to join, connect with Doug for more details: doug.sanker@gmail.com
Becoming a people of prayer:
On Saturday, April 20th (11.00am) Ann and Megan will lead a prayer walk around campus. Join us for an hour or so to walk, pray, and contend for God's Kingdom to come on earth as it is in heaven. We'll meet at Rohs and spend a bit of time praying for one another before heading out.
Feed thy neighbor:
The Community Engagement Commission is leading the effort to bless students during Exam Week. Can you provide a home-cooked meal to serve on Monday, April 22nd? Think crockpots, casseroles, and hearty sides! Meals can be dropped off at UCC between 5.30–6.00pm. If you'd like to stick around to serve and hang with students, all are welcome to do so. Sign-up to bring a dish by clicking here!
Care for thy soul:
Our friend Melissa Wuske is hosting a soul care morning, called Childlike Faith—for Grownups!, Saturday, May 4th (10am–1pm) at UCC. Come enjoy a morning of spiritual practices that help adults experience themselves as children of God. This quiet, contemplative space will include guided prayer experiences with scripture and imagery—including childlike re-imaginings of some classical disciplines. This is a time to reflect, listen to the Holy Spirit, and share with others in community. Sign-up here.
