This month in formation, we are focusing on Loving Others .  This is a time for the Sojourner’s community to partner with Solidarity  to grow deeper with Jesus through our three rhythms of formation Restore, Love, and Serve.  We will learning how to Love others well by practicing hospitality, not just inviting others over for a meal but actually learning how to share our lives. This is a time for parents, children, families, singles, and communities to engage Jesus using different prayers, disciplines, and practices.  Every time we meet we break it down to three main things: vision, intention, and means.

• Vision:  We want to paint a clear picture of what it would look like if we actually lived the life we are created to live in Christ.  The vision of a faithful apprentice of Jesus.

• Intention: After casting VISION of the life God intended for us, there must be a cultivation of passion, desire, and pursuit toward that VISION.  This is the INTENTION.  During this time we develop an truer realization that God really does have our best interest at heart.

• Means:  Once we know the direction we are going (VISION) and found a desire to pursuit that direction (INTENTION), we want to leave everyone with a way to do that (The MEANS).  The MEANS can be prayers, spiritual disciplines, tools, or practices that help us move closer to our vision and eventually draw us to our eventual goal of depth with Jesus.
