When Jesus sent seventy disciples out into the world, he didn’t equip them with power or prestige. He gave them something far more enduring: peace, presence, and his name. He sent them not as conquerors, but as carriers of hope.
We reflect on what it means to be sent—to walk into unfamiliar places not with answers, but with open hearts, bearing the name of Jesus and the hope that name holds. We go as those who believe that even a simple greeting—“Peace to this house”—can be the doorway through which the kingdom of God draws near. Join us as we explore the hope offered in the name of Jesus. See you Sunday, in person or online.
