CHRISTMAS SERVICES

& new year's plans

 
 

merry christmas...


Christmas is a time when we make room out of no room for God to be born:


This year St. Mary's is stretching ourselves and all our notions about what is possible to welcome again the birth of Jesus into a world of scarcity and violence. Even with budget cuts (I am going to 1/2 time), we will continue to create space in our hearts, our church and our world where all are fed, strangers can become friends, and change can take place.


Thank you for being part of this community and for helping us make room together.


Peace,

The Rev. Mary Foulke


feliz navidad ...


La Navidad es un tiempo en el que hacemos espacio donde no hay espacio para que Dios nazca:


Este año, en Santa María, renovamos y ampliamos nuestra comprensión de lo que es posible para acoger de nuevo el nacimiento de Jesús en un mundo de escasez y violencia. Incluso con recortes presupuestarios (solo trabajaré tres días a la semana), seguiremos creando un espacio en nuestros corazones, nuestra iglesia y nuestro mundo donde todos reciban alimento, los desconocidos puedan hacerse amigos y el cambio sea posible.


Gracias por ser parte de esta comunidad y por ayudarnos hacer espacio juntos.


LaPaz,

La reverenda Mary Foulke
