Written By Reyna Smith

Discussion Question:

Which of these do you find the hardest to build? Why? 

  • Playing card pyramid 

  • IKEA furniture 

  • Jenga tower 

  • Sand castle 

   

Practice:  

OPTION 1: Engage in the practice of building intentionally inclusive community through connecting or re-connecting with a small group of people who are committed to creating a space where all people can learn to gather, grow, give, and go together. Find out more about our small groups at: https://plattewoodschurch.churchcenter.com/groups 

 

OPTION 2: Where can you use your privilege this week to create a more diverse AND inclusive community in some areas of your life? Write down your intention and take a small first step to make it happen! 

 

 

Prayer: Gracious God, give us eyes to see You as You 

are revealed in all people. Strengthen us for 

the work of reconciliation rooted in love. 

Restore us in your image, to be beloved 

community, united in our diversity, even as 

You are one with Christ and the Spirit, now 

and forever. Amen. Prayer from UMCdiscipleship.org 

 

Scripture: Acts 2:37-42
