Week Five: Get Into Good Trouble

March 17, 2021

The MICAH Project invites you to get into "Good Trouble" during Lent by reflecting on the words of the the late Representative John Lewis. We offer one blog post for each of the five weeks of Lent to encourage you to think about how we might get into the "Good Trouble" that furthers our spiritual formation and contributes to racial healing. 

Each week’s post contains: (1) a quotation from John Lewis, (2) prayer or scripture relating to the quotation, (3) reflections or action items, and (4) a link to a video or website relating to the quotation. 

Join us for Week Five:

Quotation

“If you come together with a mission, and it’s grounded with love and a sense of community, you can make the impossible possible.” 

Chicago Tribune, June 24, 1998


Prayer

Come Holy Spirit, to all baptized in your name,
That we may turn to good
Whatever lies ahead.
Give us passion, give us fire;
Make us transform the world from what it is
To what you have created it to be.

New Zealand Prayer Book, p. 618


Reflection

Remember a time when you have come together with others to make the impossible possible.
