Make Me An Instrument – The Peace Prayer for Post-Moderns
Hatred. Injury. Doubt. Despair. Darkness. Sadness. We don’t have to look very far to see how these struggles play out every day in our world—and how, every day, we find ourselves in the very midst of such struggles. We live in a world of un-peace. Such un-peace often makes us want to retreat from the world in fear and self-preservation. But what if we lived as those who are called to be instruments of peace, redeeming and transforming whatever spaces and places we happen to be in—and whatever people happen to be there? Join us for this world-changing summer sermon series inspired by St. Francis’ famous “Peace Prayer.” Learn how to train your soul to look outward, to move boldly toward the un-peace of the world, and to bring love, forgiveness, faith, hope, light and joy wherever there is need.
Welcome home. You belong here. At St. Andrew, we embrace Jesus’ message that God loves everyone and affirm that all persons are of sacred worth. We are proud to celebrate diversity as we work to live our vision of radical hospitality. We welcome people of every age, race and gender identity; diverse nationalities, ethnicities, and sexual orientations; any family structure, economic reality, physical and mental ability, education and faith history. While there are differences among us, we can love alike though we may not think alike. You are invited to join this nurturing community on a faith journey toward greater love, understanding and mutual respect.

Do you ever feel like you don’t belong?
Do you ever wonder where in the world you do belong?
You’re not alone. The world has never been more connected, yet people are lonelier than ever. Whether we feel unworthy, alienated, anxious or uncertain about our place in the world — the absence of belonging is the silent, hidden wound of our times.
Most people think of belonging as a place, and they spend a lifetime searching for it in vain. But what if belonging isn’t so much about a particular place, but about the divine and human connections that can help make us feel at home, wherever we happen to be?
Join us for this timely, urgent series as we explore the source, nature, and promise of belonging in a disconnected world.

It’s hard to be human. Each of us, at our very conception, is given a soul—our deepest identity, a unique blueprint, our truest self. This is God’s gift to us, and we are given only a brief span of years to discover it, to accept it, and to live for it. To do so is to know true freedom and liberation by connecting to the inexhaustible love of God.
But there are forces both within and without that are constantly working to thwart that discovery: the drive to conform to the expectations of the world, our friends and family, our religion, our culture; our longing for the approval and affirmation of others through our work, our appearance, our achievements, our wealth, our education. All of these are the trappings of the false self, preventing us from knowing the freedom and joy that comes from living for our true self.
What makes it so hard to be human? Quite simply, it’s the fear of losing our false self in our lifelong pursuit of finding our soul. This is what Jesus meant when he said, “Those who find their lives will lose them, and those that lose their lives because of me will find them.”
Join us throughout this season of Lent as we discover how, in becoming truly human, we become most fully alive to God, to the world, and to ourselves.
