What are the threads that connect us as people of faith, across time and place? Where is the torn fabric that needs mending, in our own communities and beyond? How does the promise of God’s presence guide the ways we live and learn and work and worship with one another?
We hope this year’s theme, Woven Together, will be a chance to reflect on the messy and beautiful and heart-wrenching work of being a person in the world with other people, and a chance to consider where God shows up along the way.
Our contributors come from 42 different faith communities in 20 different states, including 34 campus ministries. They are current students, campus ministers and chaplains, alumni, and supporters. Whether or not you’re currently connected to a UKirk-network ministry, we’re glad you’re here. May these scripture readings, reflections, and prayers bring meaning to the days and weeks ahead, as we wait for and celebrate the coming of Christ.
In hope,
Rev. Allison Wehrung
