13th Street Sermon

When’s a memory that you have of being fully welcomed into a community? Jesus reminds us that it’s simple acts of kindness that truly transform a hello to a welcome. Let’s discover the ways that we can embrace those within our LGBTQ community on this Pride Sunday and our new pastor, Rev. April Coates, as we practice the abundant hospitality and welcome of Christ.

Have you ever felt inadequate for a job? Today we’ll listen to what Jesus proclaims in our lives as we hear a message that reminds us that we’re chosen, authorized and sent to go into the world!

Today we’ll hear a special message from Rev. Jen Logsdon-Kellogg about the journey of 13th Street Worship.

Ecclesiastes reassures us that there is a time for everything, and now is the time for change for 13th Street as Rev. Jen is sent out to another community.

13th Street is a dynamic faith community which has evolved and transformed since its beginning. 13th Street embraces the tradition of the church but also challenges it.

Ultimately, no matter where the journey takes us, we are a place to belong for all people seeking God's love without fear and where ALL people are affirmed and beloved.

We bet you’ve heard the words “go and make disciples of every nation” before. Yet sometimes we use those words in a way Jesus didn’t mean.

Join Rev Jen and Rev Sara as they explore these words of sending forth and expanding our circle wide!
