Take off your shoes
Communion with Holy Ground requires bare feet. As you do, feel the moss on your unencumbered soles. The moss seems to hold you. Close your eyes and it also speaks. Not with words, with sensation, with intimate connection to the Holiness of this place, this land. It seems to breathe into your skin, inviting you into conversation with Creation, with Divine. Source. It speaks to the longing in your Soul.
Once upon a time, someone who knew this intimately walked the Earth and taught and learned with a gathered community. They walked the land, talked and wondered, and broke bread together. They practiced grace, gratitude for God’s abundance and healing.
Sanctuary on 6th holds these visions as we shape a contemporary expression of spiritual community. We draw from the ancient, before churches had steeples and seekers sat in wooden rows. We hear the longings of people to engage with Creator in their bodies, through the mystical, and through service as well as through our minds. And to untether church, exploring different gatherings at different times.
Beheld.
Come in, sit down, be held by the love that will not let you go.
Belong.
To any experience offered in sanctuary that invites you to the next opportunity to learn and grow and be loved.
Believe.
In yourself, and the you that you’re becoming. You are beautiful. You are loved. You are part of the whole. Wholly love, Holy Mystery, Holy God.

There is a generative narrative of our time, and it is as real as the destructive story that is better publicized. In this generative story of us, we can see ourselves and others rising to our humanity. It is possible to envision a future that we want our children to inhabit — all of our children — and to innovate the forms for that and build a life there.“
