SUMMARY:The Tears of Things: A Lenten Journey of the Soul
DESCRIPTION:Sign up HERE. \nThis Lent\, Batavia First Presbyterian Church invites you to a contemplative four-week study based on Richard Rohr’s profound reflections on “The Tears of Things.” Together\, we will explore the mystery of how God meets us not just in our joys\, but in the heart of our suffering\, fragility\, and the “tragic beauty” of the world. We will learn to see that everything belongs—even the broken pieces—and that our tears are often the very windows through which we glimpse the Divine. Richard Rohr teaches that the “tears of things” are not a sign of God’s absence\, but a doorway into God’s deepest presence.

SUMMARY:From Brokenness to Wholeness
DESCRIPTION:The Vision: The Art of Kintsugi \nIn the Japanese art of Kintsugi\, broken pottery is not discarded. Instead\, the fragments are painstakingly joined back together with gold. The result is a vessel more beautiful\, more resilient\, and more valuable than the original—not despite its cracks\, but because of them. \nOur world\, our country\, and our own hearts  feel right now like those shattered pieces. We see the fractures of division\, the dust of grief\, and the sharp edges of injustice. But we are not meant to stay broken. Join us as we “turn aside” from the noise of the world to stand on Holy Ground. Together\, we will name the broken pieces and call forth the “gold” of compassion and grace to bind us back together. \n\nThe Evening Includes: \n\nSoulful Music & Reflective Poetry\nA Sacred Candle lighting Ceremony\nThe Naming of the Fragments: A time to witness the challenges of our world.\nThe Call to Wholeness: A community commitment to peace and mending.\n\n\nWho is Invited? \nEveryone. Whether you belong to a faith tradition\, are spiritual but not religious\, or are simply believe in the power of community gathered around compassion—there is a place for you on this lawn. \n\nCome as you are. Bring your fragments. Let us find the gold together.

SUMMARY:The Tears of Things: A Lenten Journey of the Soul
DESCRIPTION:Sign up HERE. \nThis Lent\, Batavia First Presbyterian Church invites you to a contemplative four-week study based on Richard Rohr’s profound reflections on “The Tears of Things.” Together\, we will explore the mystery of how God meets us not just in our joys\, but in the heart of our suffering\, fragility\, and the “tragic beauty” of the world. We will learn to see that everything belongs—even the broken pieces—and that our tears are often the very windows through which we glimpse the Divine. Richard Rohr teaches that the “tears of things” are not a sign of God’s absence\, but a doorway into God’s deepest presence.
