SUMMARY:The New England City Forum
DESCRIPTION:February 15\, 2018 //  9am-4:30pm  //  Mt. Zion Baptist Church\, Springfield\, MA // Free Event\n \nAbout the Forum \nDiverse leadership teams from key New England cities will gather for a one-day forum on February 15\, prior to Vision New England’s Go Conference (February 16 and 17 in Springfield\, MA). This is the third New England City Forum. Last year’s forum in Worcester had 103 participants from over 19 New England Cities.\nCLICK HERE to view last year’s report.\n\nOur objective is to discover what God is doing in New England cities\, to learn from one another\, and to discern how we can best cooperate with God’s work in the city we serve. \nSchedule:\n8:00am Coffee and Snacks\n9:00am Forum Begins\n* Free lunch is served\n4:30pm Forum Concludes\nNote: The forum is free to attend with ample parking \n  \nProgram Elements \n – Presentations from New England cities which include how God is at work\, current challenges and opportunities\, as well as key learnings\n – Emphasis on (and plenty of time for) dialogue with your city team\n – Developing inter-city and intra-city relationships \n  \nWho should come to the Forum \nThe New England City Forum is designed for participation of diverse teams of 8 – 10 leaders from New England cities. You will sit with your city team\, hear presentations from other cities\, and process what you hear with your team. Experience from last year’s New England City Forum in Worcester\, and from similar forums nationally\, shows that each city has a unique perspective and approach\, but also that we have a lot in common and a lot to learn from each other. The forum will emphasize mutual learning and application to your city. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to learn with city leaders and deepen relationships in your city! \n  \nWhy on February 15 and in Springfield\, MA? \nWe chose February 15 in Springfield to connect with Vision New England’s GO Conference. GO is focused on inspiring\, equipping\, and uniting the body of Christ in our region behind the challenge found in Micah 6:8. What does it look like to Do Justice\, Love Mercy\, and Walk Humbly? Doing justice and loving mercy require action on behalf of the innocent and the guilty. Walking humbly and making disciples are inseparable. Engaging communities\, our region\, and our world requires our combined efforts rooted in love and humility. \nDirections to Mt. Zion Baptist Church \nDownload One Page Flyer

SUMMARY:Week of Prayer for Christian Unity Fellowship Meal - Anchor Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Last January\, during the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity\, hundreds of us gathered at Holy Name Church in West Roxbury for an amazing day of fellowship and learning\, and an especially moving prayer service. As Cardinal O’Malley reminded us at that service\, “Today we have seen amazing things.” \nAnd we have continued to see amazing things throughout 2017\, as the Holy Spirit has been at work throughout greater Boston in many contexts bringing Christians together across many of our historic divisions. \nNow we are fast approaching the 2018 Week of Prayer for Christian Unity. It is our desire to not just repeat an experience this year\, but to take a next step in enriching the relational connections that were made last year. It seems that most appropriate one for this year would be to host a meal together where we can get to know one another better and share more of our stories. \nThe theme for this year’s Week of Prayer for Christian Unity is from Exodus 15:6 – “Your Right Hand\, O Lord\, Glorious in Power.” It evokes both the justice and the mercy of God’s action toward us. For this shared meal\, it captures both the tension and the warmth of gathering together; there are many historic divisions among us that remain unresolved\, yet it is good to be with one another and to allow room for God’s love and power to bring healing. \nAt the gathering\, we would like to focus on where each of us have seen God’s powerful hand working in our churches and neighborhoods\, in the midst of our divisions. We would like to encourage each person to bring a story or aspect of their faith tradition that they’d like to share with others. At the gathering\, we will sit by neighborhood and share a meal together. We will also hear briefly from a few leaders of the various Christian streams about where they have seen God at work to overcome divisions between us. \nHere are the details: \nJoin us for dinner on Saturday\, January 20th from 5:00 to 7:30pm at Lion of Judah Church\, 20 Reed Street\, Boston. The cost for the dinner will be $10\, and a portion of the event will go to a local justice-minded organization. Please bring $10 cash to the event. \nWe wish there was a venue or a format that was large enough to allow everyone from last year to come and to invite a friend. Unfortunately\, space will be limited this year\, so we encourage you to sign up quickly to reserve your space! Sign up via Eventbrite here. \nPlease consider how God may be inviting you to participate this year\, and please pray for this endeavor – that the love of Christ might overcome all divisions! \nP.S. It is our intention in future years to return to the larger liturgical prayer service format in order to make space for all who would like to come.

SUMMARY:Good Friday Orthodox Service of Lamentations
DESCRIPTION:Every year on Good Friday\, Orthodox Christians around the world gather to remember the time of mourning when Jesus rested in the tomb. His followers and family experienced great sorrow and confusion as their friend\, teacher\, and Lord suffered before their eyes on the cross\, finally yielding up His spirit. How could their savior truly be dead? \nThe beautiful hymns of this service express these feeling of grief and loss through a dialog of prayer between the Virgin Mary and Jesus. Ultimately\, they show that the tomb of Christ is not a place of death and decay\, but a source of life and hope. The sorrow of the crucifixion gradually transforms into joy as the faithful process around the Church with the eptitaphios (a symbolic tomb) and pass under it on the way back inside\, symbolizing Jesus’ passover from death to life as He breaks the gates of Hades and frees the souls of the righteous trapped there. \nJoin the St. Mary’s Orthodox community to celebrate this moving\, joyful service which invites us to enter into the profound mystery of humanity’s redemption. \nFirst\, there will be a procession outside in which we will meet with the nearby community of Sts. Constantine and Helen. Please bring a jacket with you as it may be cold in the evening!\nSecond\, on account of the procession\, we suggest wearing comfortable walking shoes. We will be outside for a fair amount of time\, so your feet will probably thank you if you leave the heels or rigid dress shoes at home.

SUMMARY:New England City Forum
DESCRIPTION:February 16\, 2017// 9am-4:30pm // First Assembly of God\, Worcester\, MA // Free Event \n\nAbout the Forum \nDiverse leadership teams from key New England cities will gather for a one-day forum prior to Vision New England’s Go Conference in Worcester\, MA. Our objective is to discover what God is doing in our cities\, to learn from one another\, and to discern how we can best cooperate with God’s work in the city we serve. The forum is free to attend and lunch is included. \nProgram Elements Include \nPresentations from four cities which include how God is at work\, current challenges and opportunities\, as well as key learnings\nEmphasis on (and plenty of time for) dialogue with your city team\nDeveloping inter-city and intra-city relationships \nWho should come to the Forum \nThis forum is designed for participation of diverse teams of 8 – 10 leaders from New England cities. You will sit with your city team\, hear presentations from other cities\, and process what you hear with your team. Experience from similar forums nationally shows that each city has a unique perspective and approach\, but also that we have a lot in common and a lot to learn from each other. The forum will emphasize mutual learning and application to your city. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to grow and stretch leaders in your city! \nSee First Hand the Work of the Church in Worcester \nThe program this year includes an optional field trip to see first-hand the work of the church in Worcester. 5 pm to 8 pm including dinner together (bring money for dinner). You can note your interest when you register and we will contact you with details. \nWhy on February 16th and in Worcester\, MA? \nWe chose February 16th and Worcester so that you can come one day early for the GO Conference. Remember what it was like to join countless other believers from across New England for Congress? After nearly a decade\, we will gather together again with new vision and renewed energy. On February 17-18\, join us for the GO Conference  at the DCU Center in Worcester\, MA. GO is focused on inspiring\, equipping\, and uniting the body of Christ in our region behind the challenge found in Micah 6:8 and the Great Commission. What does it look like to Do Justice\, Love Mercy\, Walk Humbly and Make Disciples in our everyday lives? Engaging communities\, our region\, and our world requires our combined efforts rooted in love and humility. \nDirections to First Assembly of God \nDownload One Page Flyer
