Well, it’s happened again. 9 months later, Life in the City is once again facing hateful rhetoric directed at our place of worship.

Let us be clear: hate has absolutely no place in our sanctuary.

LITC is steadfast in its committment to standing with the LGBTQIA+ community and all marginalized communities today and always. We will continue to be a light in the darkness.

It’s that time of year again…EASTER!🐣 And for Life in the City, that means it’s ✨MUSICAL✨ time! 💃🏽🎶

Join us Easter Sunday for “Take This Cup From Me”, a musical telling of the Easter story. If you’ve been with us for previous holidays, then you know that the LITC arts team comes at the gospel from a thought-provoking, sometimes startling, slant. This show about the last week of Jesus’ life promises to be no different. The musical starts at 11:15 a.m. on Sunday, April 5, so come early, bring friends, grab a seat, and prepare to be moved, challenged and energized.

Bring a friend and join us for a community vigil and benefit that supports families affected by ICE on Sunday, Feb. 8 from 2-5 p.m.

Life in the City is proud to be partnering again this year with the Austin Sanctuary Network! 10% of LITC’s regular donations will support this small but mighty group of community members who advocate for justice and support the immigrant community in our city during these times of cruelty and injustice.

As part of their work, they have built prayer spaces and altars to host community vigils and raise awareness of those taken by ICE. Inspired by their work, we are hosting an altar and prayer space here at LITC. The theme of the altar is “Lives Interrupted”. It is be a collection of detention center testimonies, photos of neighbors in detention, and prayers for all those living in fear. The altar will include artifacts representing the everyday items left behind when an immigrant is forcibly removed from their family. These items are daily reminders of their loved ones’ absence. We encourage you to spend time in the space, quietly reading and praying for all those being held in detention centers across the country.

In addition to this, we are partnering with ASN and Projecto Altares for a community vigil on Feb 8 from 2-5PM that includes art auction, vendors, live poetry, and live music that will benefit families affected by ICE.

“I’ll be DAMNED if my children have to march for me!”

This song from Dr King Sunday feels so…now. Take these words into your actions. March if you can. Speak out, we all must.

But if you can’t do that, support , LITC’s community partner this month. As with all other partners we have throughout the year, 10% of our own donations will go to ASN this month. Find your ways of supporting our immigrant neighbors through action. Sing out, march on.
