What does it mean to truly welcome the stranger?
Maria fled danger with her daughter, searching for safety. Tom has lived in Cedaredge all his life, wondering how change will affect his hometown. They may never meet — but in God’s story, their lives are already connected.
This Sunday, we’ll hear God’s command from Leviticus 19:33–34:
"When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. Love them as yourself."
Through Scripture, story, and prayer, we’ll explore:
Why hospitality is not an afterthought in our faith — it’s the heart of who we are.
How welcoming the stranger can deepen our own faith and strengthen our community.
Practical steps we can take to live out compassion here in Cedaredge.
Whether you’ve lived here for generations or just arrived, you belong here. Come with an open heart. Leave with a bigger one.
