Welcome to Rev. AndreaGrace's Blog

As we head to the polls, what can the earliest Christian communities teach us about leadership, democracy, and LovingKindness? Discover three invitations to put faith into action, a heartfelt prayer for America, and a musical reminder that The Way continues through us when we Lead with Love!

Water gives us life, renews us, and connects all creation. As we encounter Jesus as Living Water, we are invited to notice where God is nourishing us—and where we are called to become life-giving streams of grace, caring for one another and the waters of our precious Earth. Check out this blogpost with Rev. AndreaGrace’s reflection, music, prayers and more…

From dancing autumn leaves to children playing together, we discover lessons in seeing, receiving, and belonging. Inspired by Nicholas Black Elk’s sacred hoops and our circles of love, we explore living with LovingKindness.

What can questions, creation, and the cosmos teach us about God? Through Scripture, nature, the Cosmic Christ, and our own holy curiosity, we explore the Divine Mystery surrounding us. Even amid darkness and suffering, we are invited to wonder, question, listen, and discover God continually bringing forth new life.

Anger can be a compass, pointing us toward what needs attention. Explore how moving through anger, resentment, and forgiveness can lead us toward greater freedom and LovingKindness.

What if we stopped seeing one another as strangers (or enemies) and began seeing everyone as kin? Inspired by Jesus’ radical LovingKindness and the mujerista theology of Ada María Isasi-Díaz, explore the KinDom of God—a way of living rooted in relationship, inclusion, justice and love in action.

Sometimes the Divine invites us to set aside our carefully made plans and simply play. What began as a short summer sabbatical became six weeks of friendship, family, prayer, healing, beauty, and unexpected joy—and a reminder that ministry may happen most deeply not in what we build or accomplish, but in how fully we show up on the playgrounds and Main Streets of life.

AndreaGrace reflects on Juneteenth, and her family's commitment to the generations and her upcoming book.

Compassion has deep roots in the body, in a mother’s body. This week, we reflect on God's compassion.

On the second Sunday after Pentecost – the Church celebrates the Body and Blood of Christ. Through the centuries – the Church has shifted focus from the people as the body of Christ to the mystical body of Christ in Holy Communion.

On the first Sunday after Pentecost – the Church celebrates the Trinity – God in three manifestations. This year, that happened to also be May 31, the Feast of the Visitation – when Mary and Elizabeth encountered one another – cousins both miraculously pregnant. Through song, readings, and reflection, we will explore the different ways we come to understand and experience God – and we see that presence reflected in The Visitation.

Pentecost is considered the Birthday of the Church. The Holy Spirit – Ruah - God’s breath and flame – are in each of us. The laying on of hands – fans the flame.

This Pentecost, I share a poem I penned while in seminary in response to reading a passage in the book Abounding in Kindness by Elizabeth Johnson.

In Genesis, we read that we are created in God’s image – male and female, so God must have a feminine side. In our service on May 10, we reflected on this side of God.

In honor of National Poetry Month in April, Rev. AndreaGrace penned a 5-senses poem filled with wonder and gratitude. She includes a guide for intergenerational programs focused on poetry.

What begins as a simple soup supper becomes something sacred—voices of gratitude rising, stories shared, and Christ’s presence revealed in one another. In these holy days, we are invited not just to remember, but to gather, to serve, and to become Love in action. Come and stay—enter the story, and let it shape your own.

As Jews and Christians enter sacred days in the same week, we are invited into a shared story of liberation, remembrance, and transformation. This holy week calls Jews & Christians alike to to slow down, gather in community, and encounter the Divine more deeply. Through prayer, ritual, and reflection, may we rediscover the enduring power of love that frees, renews, and calls us to live more fully.

What if this Lent, we leave behind the dreariness and list of what we can't do - and instead embark on a season of spiritual growth? Rev. AndreaGrace provides us with some vision, hope and joy!

In the Judeo-Christian Scripture of Leviticus, we read that God commands us to love the foreigner as ourselves. What does this look like? How do we live this out? How do we support immigrants today?
