As we approach Thanksgiving next week, we want to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude to the entire RFM community for your generosity and partnership. In this busy season, it's important to pause and reflect on the impact YOU create. Because of your support, we are able to continue our vital work in the community. Meet Phil – a powerful reminder of why we do what we do. When Phil first came to RFM, he was simply seeking a shower. Today, thanks to the collective efforts of this amazing community, he is celebrating one year of sobriety and building a better future for his family. Watch the video to hear more about Phil’s transformative journey – a testament to the hope, healing, and faith that drives us all to help those in need. https://lnkd.in/gG8jDic4 🙏 #ThankYou #Transformation #Hope #RFMCommunity #Grateful

What are the four principles the Sisters live by? Sister Jill Reuber shines a light on each principle through our vocations blog, starting with the importance of valuing and fostering community. “Our community adapts and evolves as the world changes, so that we can continue to seek God in this time and place, and to minister to His people where they are today. We laugh together, learn together, love together, grieve together and grow together, united by God’s presence in our hearts and lives.” Read more at https://lnkd.in/gsys5T26

In the body of Christ, every member matters, especially our shepherds. When a pastor exits, it's not a corporate procedure; it's a family matter. How we part ways should reflect our family values - love, respect, and support. Let's transform pastoral exits from formal procedures to familial farewells. #ChurchAsFamily #PastoralCare #wearefamily

The 8 Essential Elements of Beloved Community. 5. Embodiment (through rigorous practice): Beloved Community is not simply a good idea. it is a verb - something we build together. An active creation. In this practice, our visions of Beloved Community beg us to get our hands dirty and figure out how to make it our lived experience - both in how we show up and the things we create. This requires all of us to get out of our heads, into our bodies, and listen to the wisdom of spirit and our ancestors. Over the coming weeks, we will be sharing the 8 Essential Elements of Beloved Community and following up each with related questions for all of us to consider, share, engage, and put into practice in our own lives and communities. #Embodiment #Community #BelovedCommunity #MartinLutherKing #MLK #FreePalestine #FromTheRiverToTheSea #BelovedCommunitiesNetwork
