  • A Prayer for a New Year
    Jan 1 2024

    Another year has gone, and we greet a new one with reflective hearts. Parenting, like faith, is a constant remembering. We hope you take some time with us this week for a simple breath prayer to remember God’s constant presence with us and another prayer asking for help in remembering the faithfulness of the God of the past and present. May you remember you are never alone.

  • A Prayer for Christmas
    Dec 25 2023

    Merry Christmas, friends. Today, we celebrate Jesus embracing humanity—knit together in his mother’s womb, coming into this world as a newborn, and being swaddled and held close to his mother. Pause with us today and this week to reflect on this extraordinary mystery, one that transcends any greeting card scene, holiday movie, or glittering Christmas tree. We hope that this offering helps you take a breath and reconnect with the gift of Christ, God with us, who knows what it’s like to be human like us.

  • A Prayer for Grief During the Holidays

    The holidays aren’t always the most wonderful time of year. For many, this season is wrapped up in grief and sorrow. This week features a prayer by guest liturgist Dorina Lazo Gilmore-Young, a foodie, runner, speaker, podcaster, and the award-winning author of numerous books for kids of all ages. She is a remarried widow who is raising three daughters alongside her husband, Shawn. Join us this week as we ask the Creator God to hold us close during this season, asking for courage to hold the bitter and sweet as well as the pain and joy.
