Transformation



We've moved from summer to fall to late fall. The contents of the produce boxes has begun the slow shift to winter crops. This week there was more lettuce and less basil. More turnips and less tomatoes. The crops growing in our urban sanctuary reflect that same change. A lot more green, and more growth happening underground rather than on vines. 



There is a transformation that happens through that natural world. God's creation which at times seems magical. When I live in Michigan I would marvel at the buds poping out of the thin twigs of trees which just a few weeks earlier had been encase in ice.



God's world transforms, and so do we in that world. The season of Advent is one in which we are reminded of change. The change of the birth of a baby. The transformation of God into human form. The transitions God promises in scripture--a day when the lion will lie with the lamb. Transformation is powerful and it happens, is happening and will continue to happen. Join us Sunday as we spend time with the idea and physical reality of transformation.



In Faith,



Rev. Amanda

What We mean when We say All Are Welcome:

At The Garden Church we intentionally welcome all. We do this without requiring adherence to any religious belief or creed. We foster a climate of purposeful inclusion, an environment where all can feel safe, valued, cared for, and given an opportunity to form meaningful connections with the Divine and each other. We cherish the diversity of humanity, a diversity which includes differences in sex, age, race, ethnicity, and national origin, range of abilities, sexual orientation, gender identity, financial means, education, and political perspective. 

 

We are also a member Congregation of the Pacific Coast Association of the Swedenborgian Church of North America
