More About Sacredise

BUILDING BRIDGES
A Liturgical and Devotional Guide for a Season of Spirit
We all yearn to live in peace and safety, to get along with our neighbours, and to have all the resources and opportunities we need for our family to thrive. Yet somehow we just don’t seem to be able to create that world. Polarisation, conflict, and inequality seem to be growing by the day.
But, across the globe, millions of people agree that the teachings of Jesus describe a way of being that can make our world the place we long for. And at the heart of Jesus’ way is the call to include one another, celebrate our differences, and build bridges of understanding, compassion, and connection between us.
That’s why I am so excited to introduce BUILDING BRIDGES, a new Liturgical and Devotional Guide for a Season of Spirit.
BUILDING BRIDGES is both a guide for worship and personal devotion and a kind of manual for learning to live in the inclusive way of Christ. If you long for your world to be more welcoming and compassionate, then BUILDING BRIDGES is for you!

Week of 02 – 08 July 2023
THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK Hospitality is described in the New Testament as a spiritual gift. This may lead us to believe that it is only required of those to whom this particular gift has been given, but this would be a mistake. In the Old Testament hospitality was expected of all of God’s people, and, as with other spiritual gifts, the task of those who have received the gift of hospitality is to teach the whole church how to be hospitable. This means that the call to hospitality - [...]
Proper 5A
11 June 2023 This Sunday we begin the season of Ordinary Time (from the Latin word ordinalis meaning ‘numbered’) in which we shift focus from God’s story as taught and revealed in Christ to our story and how we will live as faithful Christ-followers. Ss we begin this season the readings for this week challenge us to make a simple but difficult choice: will our faith be about religious sacrifice or mercy? Will we give ourselves to maintaining religious institutions or will we focus our lives and faith on [...]
