We must not “unhitch” ourselves from the OT — Jesus did not come to unhitch us from it, but to transform it, to fully fill it.

The “you are(s)” (the salt/the light) encourage us to reimagine our role in the world as God’s agents of redemption — this is no small thing.

It’s the 4th Sunday of the Month. That means that we’re scattering out into our city with our Missional Communities. Join us as we have a picnic in the park!

The Beatitudes are “not a list of requirements, but rather a description of the life of a people gathered by and around Jesus.” — Stanley Hauerwas

“The more we explore their implications, the more seems to remain unexplored. Their wealth is inexhaustible. We cannot plumb their depths. Truly, ‘We are near heaven here.’”

The Parish Church is excited to be joining our other City Ministries churches for the Togther ‘18 service. Join us and many others at the Sonoma-Marin Fairgrounds at 10:30 on Sunday, September 30.

Our first Sunday Gathering was this past Sunday, September 9 and it was amazing. What a joy to gather with our Core Team and some new folks to worship through music and preaching.
