From Nazareth to Jerusalem | Walking Through Lent
At Your Pace | Asynchronous (WhatsApp & Strava)
This devotional small group will connect you to scripture, you body, your community and each other. Walking two miles everyday in Lent, you will walk the distance from Nazareth to Jerusalem. Additionally, we will read through Jesus final days as the season of Lent progresses.
Mark your journey and support one another through Strava and What’s App.
The Poetry of Lent
Thursdays 5:30pm | Host: Pr. Alyssa Kaplan | Zoom
Every journey needs a guide - and what better guide to the 40 days of Lent than the beloved poet, Mary Oliver?
Winner of both the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award, Oliver is widely celebrated as an accessible, insightful observer of the natural world, the life of faith, and the interplay between the two. Imagine a six-week journey with Oliver at your side, illuminating ancient passages of scripture; provoking bite-sized meditations on key Lenten themes; and pointing toward everyday practices for individuals, families, and congregations.
Finding Strength When the World is Breaking
Sundays, 7pm | Host: Rev. Arden Strasser | Hybrid
Many people are finding that the present political upheavals are producing stress, anxiety and even existential uncertainty. My series will take you from disorientation to grounded trust to resilient hope to purposeful determination. We will not be trying to “fix” fear, but to form people who can live faithfully inside it. How can you avoid burnout? What is Christian defiance? We’ll find guidance from bible texts, great theologians and contemporary songwriters.
Lutherans Who Lunch | The Book of Jonah
Thursdays 1pm | Host: Rev. Danielle Miller | Zoom
The Book of Jonah is about so much more than a big fish! Dive into the entertaining and profound book of Jonah! All are welcome. No previous Bible Study experience necessary.
Faith and Food
Wednesdays, 7pm | Hosts: Pr. Will Kroeze & Vicar Nick Paulson-Moe | Hybrid
Across cultures and religious traditions, humans have long recognized the powerful intersection of food, community, and spirituality. This small group will explore the place of food in scripture and the ministry of Jesus; the ways food builds community and erases divisions; and how food can be justly and equitably produced and distributed. Led by Pastor Will Kroeze and Vicar Nick Paulson-Moe, with special guests.
For Such a Time as This: An Emergency Devotional
Mondays 7pm| Naomi deAndre | Zoom
A guide for ordinary Christians seeking to live faithfully in extraordinary times
“This is not the first end of the world. Many worlds have ended.”
In an era of political polarization, eroding democratic norms, and rising authoritarianism, many Christians find themselves disoriented, wondering how their faith should inform myriad daily decisions. Written specifically for ordinary believers, this accessible devotional acknowledges that while some are called to dramatic public witness, all must face the daily challenge of living faithfully as long-established institutions and systems reveal their fragility.
“None of this is unprecedented; what is unprecedented is that today it is we who have to do the hard work of seeing idols smashed, grieving and picking up the pieces, holding them into the sun, and seeing new refractions of light in their edges.”
A New Normal: A Gathering Around Faith & Chronic Illness/Disability
Tuesdays 6pm | Pr. Hayley | Zoom
This small group is a safe, supportive space for those navigating a new normal. A diagnosis can change everything - we have doctors who (hopefully) walk us through physical changes, but how does that diagnosis affect our day to day life, our sense of self, and our faith. No answers promised - but community, support, and exploring together is guaranteed. No matter where you are on your journey, you are welcome here.
Grief Group
Mondays 6pm | Pr. Hayley | Hybrid
We all experience loss. Sometimes that loss can overwhelm our day to day living. Other days, it is the edges we live around. But one thing is certain, you don’t have to carry it alone. You are invited you to join our Grief group—a safe, faith-based space to find comfort, healing, and community with others who understand your pain.
