The River Table met on Tuesday, September 20^th. At this meeting we unanimously voted to recommend that we remain at the Event Center and renew our lease for 2023. There will be a congregational vote to decide whether to accept this recommendation immediately following worship on Sunday, October 9th.

The last two Sundays we have had a chance to talk about where River of Hope has been and where God’s Spirit is leading us anew. As of right now our lease at the event center is not renewable and we need to find a new place sometime before next December. We have begun talking about at stake in the decisions ahead. You can find the notes from those meetings here.

Born and raised in Alaska, Hans attended Luther College in Decorah IA. He spent the last 25 years (running Dakota Road Music, a grassroots performance/publishing company) and cobbling together various musical gigs to do what he loves – getting people singing. He enjoys ultimate frisbee, hiking, biking, cooking, and has a soft spot for ice cream and most brands of chips. On his day off, he might be found weeding the garden, pruning apple trees, eating ice cream or hanging out with his spouse, Heidi Morlock or one of his boys, Nelson (23) or Simon (17). In all that he does, Hans prays and works for a world where all creation is seen as sacred.

Midweek Lenten Worship and Songbook 

Set Your Space Together: 

• Set aside a time each week for reflection.

As a household will you gather on Wednesdays via zoom for worship at 7pm, or does it work in your schedule to set aside time before bed or first thing in the morning with a hot cup of coffee? Set aside some intentional time each week to pause and enter into sacred space and reflection on what it means to be Christ’s disciples.

• Find a way to mark your sacred space.

You might do this by lighting a candle and setting your table for dinner church, or you might curl up in a favorite chair or play some music that helps to ground you in this present moment. If you have kids in your household, consider including them in setting up an alter space each week. They can find a favorite blanket or table cloth to use, they can create a cross out of blocks or art supplies, and they can help prepare the supplies for the interactive elements each week.

Know that wherever and however you gather, this space is holy ground and God meets you here.

• Gather this worship booklet and your RoH Lenten At-Home Kit which has the supplies needed for the interactive elements.

Check your email or the RoH Facebook Page for weekly prompts on the interactive themes

• • Take a few deep breaths to ground you in this present moment.

“Repeat to yourself: I am here. God is here. This space is holy ground. _{(Sanctified Art: Again and Again)}
