A God Named Love

Sunday, May 18, 2025

Easter initiates a new day. It anticipates a new heaven and a new earth. The risen Christ is making all things new. In the mystery of holy baptism God has made new people of us. Today Jesus invites us to see everyone in a new light—through the lens of love.

John 13:31-35

³¹ When he had gone out, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man has been glorified, and God has been glorified in him. ³² If God has been glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself and will glorify him at once. ³³ Little children, I am with you only a little longer. You will look for me, and as I said to the Jews so now I say to you, ‘Where I am going, you cannot come.’ ³⁴ I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. ³⁵ By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Gaza and the West Bank: A Struggle for Survival Amid Genocide

"Gaza and the West Bank: A Struggle for Survival Amid Genocide"

Thursday, May 29, 7:00pm

Midvale Community Lutheran Church

(4329 Tokay Blvd., Madison, WI)

The Rev. Khader El-Yateem, ELCA churchwide Executive Director for Service and Justice, will share a presentation that aims to shed light on the lived experiences of Palestinians under siege, the international silence surrounding their suffering and the resilience they continue to show in the face of what many are calling a slow, unfolding genocide. He will also lift up some of the resistance to Israel’s action in Gaza that is going on around the world.
