Pancake Church

Join us for a tradition about 4 years in the making, when we make pancakes and have brunch the Sunday after Christmas during worship. There will be some fun elements of worship we’ll experience as we eat pancakes.

Christmas Eve

O, come all ye faithful and everyone else-it’s Christmas eve. We will sing new songs and old and hear the ancient story of a love that came down and surprised us with grace and love, announcing it’s presence in the strangest of ways.

Our Advent Theme is “The Hopes and Fears of All the Years.” This day we reflect on the Shepherds’ experience (Luke 2:8-20) of the heavens being filled with angels say “Do not fear,” and filling the countryside with song.

Advent week 4: Love

Our Advent Theme is “The Hopes and Fears of All the Years.” This week we will focus on Love by looking at the story of Joseph’s dream (Matthew 1:18-23). Joseph’s fears are overcome by love. Can we let God’s love overcome our fears and give us hopes?

Advent week 3: Joy

Our Advent Theme is “The Hopes and Fears of All the Years.” This week we will focus on Joy by looking at the story of Mary (Luke 1:26-38). When does joy take us by surprise? Do not fear!

Advent week 2: Peace

Our Advent Theme is “The Hopes and Fears of All the Years.” This week we will focus on Peace by looking at the story of Zechariah (Luke 1:5-25). What are our hopes for Peace and what fears do we have that keep us from seeking Peace?

Chosen Home.

Home is not necessarily a place, but where we find authentic belonging.

At Pancake Church we participate in table conversation around a meal and an idea from the bible, the season, or our experiences.

It’s always a tasty adventure.

Scripture: Luke 2:41-52

Join us. All Means All.

Invited Home.

There is no room for Mary and Joseph in the inn. They are displaced from their home, journeying to fulfill their civic requirements to be counted in the census. And yet, the time comes to give birth where they are, and so a humble home is found. A place is made, among the feeding trough, in a cramped room abounding with chaos. In many ways, Jesus is born without an invitation, and yet, he devotes his life to inviting people who are cast out.

In the same way, we might imagine the story of Christmas as God’s invitation to be welcomed home despite all barriers. How will we respond?

Scripture: Luke 2:1-20

Join us. All Means All.

After receiving the angel’s extraordinary news, Mary retreats to Elizabeth and Zechariah’s home to digest her new calling. She seeks refuge—physical safety and emotional protection. She receives a safe haven, a home for her heart to soon sing praise. Sanctuary and safe space is so crucial for everyone, especially the mother of Christ while she prepares to become a home for God. Sanctuary is anywhere God’s love dwells freely and abundantly.

Join us. All means All.

John the Baptist’s good news sounds harsh, but he preaches a home for all—where inequities are banished, valleys are lifted up, and all have the resources they need for collective flourishing. Ultimately, John’s message is one of joy. We are called to collectively build and repair the structures of our society; we are called to be kin-dom builders. Wherever we build, God is there. What we build should be a place with a large table and room for all.

We consider this message as we take in the Gospel According to Sufjan with lots of music from Sufjan Stevens.
