Matthew 10:40-42 | Jesus’ disciples were sent out with a job to do: to proclaim the news of God’s Kingdom and to serve those they encountered. Much in the same way, as disciples of Jesus today, we are sent with a similar job description. But while the disciples were sent to give to others, they were also sent to receive from others. Join us this weekend as we explore the relationship between giving and receiving hospitality: opening our hands to receive the welcome and generosity of Christ and of our neighbors and intertwining ourselves with one another in wholehearted hospitality.
