The Gospel of Welcome: Becoming a Parish of Radical Hospitality
Every parish wants to be known as welcoming. Yet many of us have experienced walking into a church and feeling invisible, unsure of where to sit, or whether anyone even noticed we came. Real Christian hospitality goes far beyond a friendly handshake at the door. It is a way of seeing every person with the eyes of Christ—especially the stranger, the seeker, and the one who hesitates at the threshold.
The question is: how? When we are accustomed to our space and its rythyms, we may be blind to the challenges outsiders feel even approaching the door.
This workshop defines and explores the Biblical roots of radical hospitality, leads people in an assessment of their space and hospitality support, and promotes the responsibility of all the baptized in adopting holy habits of hospitality.
