Our Pastor wrote this beautiful article about finding ways to be resilient in community, especially when the world at large won’t meet our needs. What helps you have resilience?

Life is often overwhelming. Engaging in religious, individual, communal, and systemic forms of imagination, can help us move forward.

Best blessing ever at the end of OHfg Pride session tonight! Quick, if you're q***r and Christian, draw a cross on your head and say "Thank God you made me q***r!"

Psalm 139: 13-14:
For it was you who formed my inward parts;
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
Wonderful are your works;
that I know very well.
