Our friend Dave is having surgery on his wrist tomorrow. Please pray for minimal pray and a positive outcome. Help his anxiety to lessen and remind him...he is not alone. Thanks in advance for your prayers.

Lament is a heartfelt expression of sorrow for the pain and suffering that we both experience and witness in the world around us. It is a broken-hearted cry out to God that the world is not as it should be. Lament is not simply a complaint, but an invitation to bring our broken hearts to God, to meet Jesus IN the grief, instead of trying to escape or whitewash over it. This week we invite you to dig deep into the sacred space of lament in various forms.
