She speaks in storms that arrive without warning, in winds that carry dust across fields where crops once grew. But still, there are voices who say, “There is nothing to fear.” Still, there...
Genesis 1: 1 – 2: 4a, Matthew 28: 16–20 By Revd George Mwaura There’s a story of a Sunday school teacher who asked the class, ‘Can anyone explain the Trinity for me?’ An eight-year-old girl seated at the front thought for a moment and said, ‘Well… God is kind of like a 3-in-1 shampoo: Father, Son,...

God of abiding presence, you promise not to leave us orphaned,
but to dwell within us through your Spirit.
In the week ahead, when we are uncertain, be our guide. When we are anxious, be our peace.
When we are challenged, be our courage.
Teach us to keep your commandments not as obligation, but as the natural outflow of love.
Give us grace to speak of our hope with gentleness and respect,
and to live in such a way that others may glimpse your life within us.
Amen

Not in lightning or triumph, but in questions, gentle, insistent, opening the sealed rooms of the heart. You walked our pace, held our silence, gathered our fragments...
1 Peter 2: 2–10, John 14: 1–14 By Revd George Mwaura There is something deeply human about wanting stability. We long for something that does not move when everything else does, something we can rely on when life becomes unpredictable, when health falters, relationships strain, or the future feels unclear. Many of us know what it...
