Join us this Sunday as we begin the series,
Less is More: A Guide for Simple Living
A phrase originating from architecture, less is more seeks to convey the virtues of minimalism. The sentiment has all sorts of applications, from our lives as consumers to our participation in nuanced conversations. For the month of October, we’ll be considering its application to our life of faith, looking at some of the classic teachings of Jesus around the way we handle our finances and belongings. Join us as we explore some lessons for simple living.
Luke 12:13-21
13 Someone in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the family inheritance with me.” 14 But he said to him, “Friend, who set me to be a judge or arbitrator over you?” 15 And he said to them, “Take care! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of possessions.” 16 Then he told them a parable: “The land of a rich man produced abundantly. 17 And he thought to himself, ‘What should I do, for I have no place to store my crops?’ 18 Then he said, ‘I will do this: I will pull down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. 19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, you have ample goods laid up for many years; relax, eat, drink, be merry.’ 20 But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your life is being demanded of you. And the things you have prepared, whose will they be?’ 21 So it is with those who store up treasures for themselves but are not rich toward God.”

We spread Christ's love as we increased awareness of Tapestry Church. Many positive comments were shared. Thank you, too, for supporting Courageous Hearts Adoptions. We look forward to seeing you next September 2024!

CAMP 2024

Reconciliation Offering
Funds generated by this special emphasis are used throughout the year to provide grants to ministries and congregations actively developing and implementing programs that promote our Church’s Pro-Reconciliation and Anti-Racist identity. These programs and efforts seek to reveal, re-educate, and remove systemic and structural barriers in our communities that serve to deny the image of God and human thriving based on race.
