Mary’s role is not limited to giving birth to Jesus and mothering him in his childhood. In John’s gospel, she is among the women standing near the cross; in Acts, she is among the disciples awaiting the gift of the Spirit. Through all that happened she continued to see how God was at work through her son, keeping the ancient promises to her ancestors, brushing aside the rich and powerful, and focusing on those as poor and powerless as Mary herself. Pastor Dustin will preach and preside. Our Community Advocates will join us for a very special Mission Moment to update the congregation on our community organizing efforts regarding affordable housing. Mass will begin with 15 minutes of music & meditation.
