Elizabeth in Judea: Encouragement

In the first trimester of her pregnancy, Mary makes the same journey she will later endure as a very pregnant woman. This time she stops short of Bethlehem in the home of her (also pregnant) relative and friend, Elizabeth. Finally, Mary can let go and celebrate this secret she has held in ever since the visit from the angel. Elizabeth's joy encourages Mary to accept fully what she has been chosen to do-carry this child who will be a Message of Hope and Justice to all people-and she exclaims the powerful Magnificent.

Join us Sunday as we give thanks for those who encourage us and learn how we can encourage and support others into fullness of life.
