Sabbath Sunday - No Service on November 26th

Sabbath is a day to find harmony and peace. Sabbath is rest, but it is active, joy-filled rest. Leave anything that brings up anxiety or care that would silence your spirit of joy behind. Save that for the next day. Do not let worries consume your day. Sabbath is a gift to receive and accept. The Sunday after Thanksgiving we are having a Sabbath Sunday, where service is canceled and we make space for our volunteers, staff, and community to be mindful about this type of rest. You are made to rest. You are made for joy. We encourage you to make this Sabbath whatever you need. Consider if you need time with yourself, or if you would like to make plans with those that bring you a feeling of peace and those that remind you of your belovedness. Here’s some ideas of how you could practice this Sabbath: 

• Do a self-care practice (nap, take a bath, clean a space that makes you feel happy, intentional breathing)

• Do something creative that activates your child-like imagination

• Cook something yummy that makes your body feel good

• Call someone who gives you life

• Play a board game

• Read and/or Journal

• Look at something beautiful and meditate on how God is in it and in you

• Find joyful movement in your body (stretch, dance, go on a walk)
