NY Faith & Justice is bringing Shane Claiborne to NYC this SUNDAY. Shane is the author of The irresistible Revolution and on the forefront of the New Monastic movement. Isaac and I have both read his book and seen him speak and recommend him whole heartedly!

He’s the media-subversive, politically-radical, dreadlocked-hippy St. Francis of our day.

If you’re free on Sunday evening from 7:30-9:30, GO! And if you want to learn more about the NEW NY Faith & Justice group, they are having a service at 5 with meal following. All FREE wtih RSVPs.

Advent begins this Sunday!

 

 Advent is the season when the church waits for the arrival Jesus.

This year NY Faith & Justice invites you to enter the season asking one question…

“Is Advent just a celebration of the time when Jesus first came as a baby or is it a current day prayer for Christ to come today?”

THIS SUNDAY December 2, 2007

NY Faith & Justice @ All Angels Church!

251 W. 80th Street @ Broadway

Keynote Speaker Shane Claiborne (author of The Irresistible Revolution)

The Bridge (@ 5pm) AND Christianity and Transformational Development Seminar (@ 7:30pm)

The Bridge All Angels Episcopal Church This Sunday @ 5pm serviceSpeaker: Shane Claiborne (author, The Irresistible Revolution)Come and hear from Shane as he talks directly to a congregation living in the tension of economic and ethnic diversity. All Angels 5pm service is home to the homeless and the affluent alike. It’s jazzy worship attempts to bridge cultural and generational divides, yet the community lives with the constant tension of disparate needs. Hear Shane’s prophetic word to this community and get a glimpse of the reconciliation and justice possible within the family of God!

The first 30 RSVPS for The Bridge will receive vouchers for the Community Meal after the service.

RSVP to pheltzel@nyfaithjustice.org

The fourth of five seminars in the NY Faith & Justice Christianity and Transformational Development Series.

This Sunday @ 7.30 – 9pm
Speaker: Shane Claiborne

Love wins. Death dies. Amid the hells of war and poverty, Shane will share about the triumph of love and scandalous grace amid war zones and ghettoes. Building upon the wisdom of Christian radicals throughout history, we will consider how to live our faith in ways that prophetically interrupt the destructive patterns of our world. Q & A session will follow Shane’s talk.

NOTE: For folks attending the Bridge, we encourage folks without vouchers to get dinner in the neighborhood and come back @ 7:30pm for the seminar.

Please RSVP to suzana.s.andrade@gmail.com for Shalom, Reconciliation and Non-Violence: Extremists for Love
