Shining Light in the Darkness: A Call to Illuminate Our World
In a world often shrouded in darkness, both physical and spiritual, there's an urgent need for light. Not just the kind that illuminates our paths on a moonless night, but the kind that brings hope, joy, and purpose to our lives and the lives of those around us.
We all have moments when we desperately need light. Perhaps you've found yourself in a situation where the absence of light left you feeling vulnerable or afraid. Maybe you've experienced the relief that comes when a beam of light pierces through the darkness, revealing what was once hidden and uncertain.

This age-old practice, deeply rooted in the life of Jesus and the early church, holds the key to combating loneliness and building authentic community in our modern world.
