Night Ministry's Open Cathedral Returns

Please support the San Francisco Night Ministry - here's their post:

Open Cathedrals Return

Announcement
From Rev. Monique Ortiz


We are coming back!!!
SF Night Ministry Open Cathedrals will resume for Holy Week!
 

Maundy Thursday @ OC-Mission

We hope you will join us for Open Cathedral – Mission as we return to in-person Worship on Maundy Thursday, April 1st at 5:30 P.M.  located on the Southwest Bart Plaza of 16th and Mission Streets.  We will hold our traditional “Foot-washing” Service followed by serving a meal to all.

Most scholars agree that the English word Maundy in that name for the day is derived through Middle English and Old French mandé, from the Latin mandatum, the first word of the phrase "Mandatum novum do vobis ut diligatis invicem sicut dilexi vos" ("A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you"), the statement by Jesus in the Gospel of John 13:34 by which Jesus explained to the Apostles the significance of his action of washing their feet, is expressed in our dedication to love and service.
 

Easter Sunday @ OC-Civic Center

We invite you as well, to join us in the grand celebration of Easter Sunday and the Thirteenth-Year Anniversary of Open Cathedral – Civic Center as we return to in-person Worship on April 4th at 2:00 P.M.  We are located in the pocket park of the UN Plaza at Leavenworth and McAllister streets (near the fountain).  Upon the conclusion of Service, lunch is offered to all.
 

We are always looking for partners in ministry to provide the meals for our weekly Thursday and Sunday Open Cathedrals. Please contact the Rev. Monique Ortiz, Director of Community Programs at ortiz@sfnightministry.org

CONTACT TO PROVIDE A MEAL

You call us to live your life,
follow where you have trod,
be your presence in these streets,
show compassion to the poor,
support the weak,
embrace the outcast,
bring lives into your kingdom.
Yet our hearts are troubled,
we are fearful of the task,
deafened to your promise
to be with us
wherever we might go.
Forgive our timidity,
grant us peace for the journey,
and strength for the day,
that we might demonstrate our love
in the life we live and share. Amen

Faith & Worship – John C. Birch
