Opening Up! Our hearts and our building! New Wisdom to share! Beginning on Sunday, March 6th we will gather for in-person worship Sundays at 9:30 am. We ask that you observe ongoing protocols of social distancing, masking, and getting vaccinated. Our Pastor will be wearing a mask to protect the children and other vulnerable people who might be gathering with us.

As we move forward, each of us must engage in a self-risk assessment, determining our own health and discerning what enables us to feel safe as we each consider attending in person. This will impact each person's participation, as some people will not feel comfortable (or may live too far away) to worship in person.
Keep in mind that all are welcome as we continue to gather online for worship on Zoom for our Monday Sanctuary Time of Belonging at 6:30 pm Central time and Wednesday Wisdom Circle Worship at 10:30 am Central time. Centering Prayer will continue Sunday nights on Zoom and starting March 10th be hybrid in-person and Zoom. Our goal is to develop a hybrid worship experience that enables us to gather at Tippe every Sunday while also connecting with our online community.
Let us pray for one another and tenderly live into the challenges and possibilities of worshiping as a community - in whatever format is comfortable for you. Let us be mindful that this community has done an incredible amount of faithful work together, exploring the theme of the threshold and crossing over to loving kindness. What might you glean from these rich images and apply to the present? How are each of us called into loving kindness?

At Tippe, we believe in a spacious Christianity through which GRACE cultivates hope, healing, and purpose! Here faith continues to open up…to move away from cut and dry, right and wrong, good and bad. Tippe is a safe space, a brave place! An open and affirming community where everyone belongs! And, we're all accountable...in a life giving sense!
A community of communities where all are able to grow, ask questions, have doubts, and walk with others. Here, you will experience the palpable support of a community of believers, doubters, thinkers, doers, and pray-ers who together are changing lives and our greater community in visible ways! Please let us know if there are ways we can be supportive!

What is a Green Luminary® Award?
It takes vision and foresight to sustainably manage water where it falls. A Green Luminary is ultimately helping protect our rivers and Lake Michigan by adopting practices that harvest rainfall for other uses or mimic nature by draining it into the ground to reduce water pollution. The Green Luminary projects are led by true champions who recognize not only the need to manage storm water but also the need to exceptional green infrastructure design projects in the MMSD service area that benefit our lakes and rivers, as well as our communities. |
