Where Is Hope?

Where is Hope?  As we prepare to light the first candle of Advent—the candle of Hope—this Sunday, we enter a season that begins not with answers, but with questions.

The International Day of Persons with Disabilities is on December 3rd, and especially for many in the disability community, hope isn’t an easy word.  Hope gets tested in waiting rooms and inaccessible workplaces, in systems that overlook, in churches that forget to make room.  Hope gets stretched thin by the daily labor of navigating a world not built with everybody or every mind in mind.

And yet—Advent tells us something astonishing: hope is not found by pretending everything is fine.  Hope comes into the places that hurt.  Hope draws near to the overlooked, the excluded, the exhausted.  Hope takes the form of a God who chooses to arrive in vulnerability, not power.

Join us for worship this Sunday November 30th at 10AM with Rev. Daniel Hayward and Dr. Catherine Cavanagh.

Live stream will start at 9.50AM and chat will be active during the service.  If you would like more information about Wall Street contact us at office@wallstreetchurch.com
