In the story of Genesis, we meet God, the original creator. God created our world out of nothingness with spectacular results. Yahweh created humankind and endowed each of us with an innate creative spirit. This imaginative spirit has inspired us to create beautiful works of art, inspiring written words, breathtaking photography, magnificent architecture, breakthrough discoveries, and life-saving innovations. Come join us on the last Sunday, July 27, as we celebrate creativity and experience God’s presence in the expression of our unique artistic gifts. Then, visit our community art show in the entry hall during our hospitality hour and after services.

Celebrate PRIDE in worship at this lay-led service, where we'll be invited to both celebrate and listen deeply. Through story, prayer, song, and reflection, we'll listen deeply for the ways God is inviting us into mutual liberation. We'll also welcome a guest speaker who identifies as a queer community organizer and volunteer leader in the Pacific Coast Coalition for Seafarers.
We will not be having our usual potluck this Sunday, but coffee and snacks will be available between services.
We encourage you to join us at the Beaverton PRIDE celebration! This is a fun opportunity to be an affirming faith community within a space full of LGBTQIA+ joy. Want to march in the parade? Meet members of St. Andrew Lutheran and St. Matthew Lutheran on Watson Street between 3rd and 4th (look for St. Matthew’s banner) or consider spending an hour or two at our PRIDE booth. Don't forget to wear your Spirit of Grace t-shirt if you have one!

Join us for a special worship service — Beyond Inclusion, Celebrating the Gifts of Neurodiversity in Worship. We'll explore how autistic and other neurodivergent perspectives enrich our understanding of God and our worship experience. We'll move beyond familiar ways of creating a welcoming space, recognizing that the unique perspectives of neurodiverse worshipers are essential to the body of Christ and enhance our expression of worship. We’ll also offer sensory fidget tools and an art table for multisensory engagement during the service, providing alternative ways to connect with God. Come and experience how our differences can build a more connected community and faith!

For this month's lay-led Last Sunday service we will first lament and then learn psychological and spiritual tips to ground ourselves when the pain of the world seeps in. Our second offering will be for the Oregon Food Bank as it loses federal resources. Join us as we draw strength from each other and celebrate our unity in the risen Christ.

When describing worship, we often paint a picture of a solemn, ritual-laden, humorless, and non-participatory service where the attendees are talked at, rather than actively engaged in the process. Many people think play should be checked at the door when entering a religious service. God, however, has given us a sense of humor and encourages us to use it to create connections, develop friendships, and spread joy in the world. This world is not simply a waiting room where we pay our dues to enter the joyful kindom of heaven where there will be dancing in the streets. Rather we are charged with creating that kindom here on Earth. Join the party on the last Sunday of August to hear about and participate in sacred play.
