Life Together: In the Face of Death

Lent 2 (March 16, 2025)Naomi, Ruth and Orpah are three women who are grieving (Ruth 1).  The deaths they have encountered force them to make tough decisions that include both separation but also deeper connection.When we experience loss, through death, break-ups or illness, it often impacts our relationships.  Some come to an end; others are new or renewed in a profound way.We find that even in the face of death and loss, God is still the God of easter and resurrection, who gives us life together.This painting is likely actually a poster by Veronica McDonald.  You can find it here.
