Our Story

Precious Lord we gather in your presence not as refined Christians, but as works in progress. We gather to worship, we gather to share, we gather to be.

We welcome you, God, into our space, this place of gathering.

Welcome. Welcome. Welcome.

we welcome the threatened

we welcome the dangerous

we welcome the unsure and the arrogant

we welcome the single, the married, the divorced

we welcome the annoying, insufferable, and just plain mean.

we welcome the clean

we welcome the dirty

we welcome the majority and the minority

we welcome the activist and the apathetic

we welcome the optimist, the pessimist, and the realist

we welcome the healthy

we welcome the sick

we welcome the addict, the felon, the fraud

we welcome all who rejoice and all who suffer

we welcome those who agree and those who disagree

We welcome all, Lord, because in this space “they” become “we” and we are your children.

We welcome the past, the present, and the future whatever each may hold because you are in all three, and we welcome you, and you, and you.

Amen.
