Grace & Race Lament and Prayer

June 04, 2020 from 8:30 pm - 9:30 pm

As we've mourned and grieved the deaths of Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, and George Floyd, we have become more and more familiar with the act of lament. Pastor David Swanson says, "I've come to think of lament as a sort of limp. It does not keep us from moving forward, from joining the struggle for freedom. But neither does it absolve or sooth us. Lament is always there. It serves not as a moment or a season but an ongoing posture for the previously deceived, the still complicit, the too-slowly waking up."

This will be a guided time of prayer on Zoom as the Grace and Race team leads us through a prepared liturgy of lament. You will be able to access the call at redeemer.com/lament on Thursday evening.
