Reflection
This month’s reflection is written by Mark Wallace, Christian Horizons’ Executive Director of Organizational Culture and International Partnerships. In his reflection, “Welcoming Ways”, he reflects on how we can advocate for accessible and welcoming environments for everybody. Intentional and forward-thinking examples of welcome are all ways to communicate, “I value you. I am glad that you are here.”
Prayer Guide
The theme for August’s Prayer Guide is “Welcoming Ways”, how accessible spaces communicate, “Come on in, we’re looking forward to you being here!” Welcome and hospitality are central to the Christian faith and are best revealed in God’s welcome of people through Christ’s love.
This prayer guide is included below to print and make available at various locations as an optional resource for employees, people receiving support, families and church partners. If you have any questions about the prayer guide or items to include next month, please contact ministry@christian-horizons.org.
