2020 Interfaith National Day of Prayer
PB UMC & St. Mark’s UMC have collaborated with the Islamic Center of San Diego and B’Nai Tikvah Temple to bring an Interfaith National Day of Prayer Service to all people. These prayers reflect a portion of the diversity of our Nation as we share sacred words, offer light, and share this life with one another.
In the Beginning
This Sunday, we launch into a new sermon series. Our current reality of social isolation in the midst of a pandemic is not the only example of widescale stress and anxiety on the human species. Psychologists and historians continue to point out that one expression of humanity seems constant across such periods of stress – creativity.
Changes
Everything has changed and is changing. In this time of unprecedented uncertainty, where might we find God’s Spirit guiding us to dreaming new dreams and doing new things?

By His Wounds
We’ve all heard it before: suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. I stand by my belief that God doesn’t want us to suffer and that suffering is the way to salvation. At the same time, we can’t deny the fact that destruction is always somewhat a part of the reconstruction process. And death is part and parcel of the process for birth.
