Jesus invites us into a relationship defined by friendship and to extend that same friendship and love to our neighbors. That love needs to be extended beyond the barriers we and the world so often construct to include all of our neighbors.
To learn and grow in faith, we need to immerse ourselves in Christian community and be fully present in the Church and the world as people of faith.
Faith isn't about clinging to unchanging practices, but being moved and led by the Spirit to embrace a life-long mission and adventure.
Christians have a calling to share the sense of belonging and purpose found in the grace and love of God.
