In this devotion, Mark R. Peterson ’81 M.Div., says Paul envisions God’s grace as alive in our world rather than living with anxiety over sin. Read today’s God Pause.

We gather in the Chapel of the Incarnation again this Wednesday for a service of Holy Communion. It is a simple, quiet, straightforward practice of the communion liturgy. There is no sermon, just prayer and reflection in community around the readings for the week. We’ll start at 11 a.m.

Next Monday (8/24), we expect to begin the process of removing two fuel tanks from behind Bockman Hall. This will occur directly in front of the north exit and also between the central and east wings. As a result, we are requesting that—next week—everyone move their cars to the west lot of the OCC and the westernmost side of the Bockman lot. This will allow the contractors to set up the crane needed for this project. —Facilities and Operations
