Genesis 18:1-5
The Lord appeared to Abraham by the oaks of Mamre, as he sat at the entrance of his tent in the heat of the day. He looked up and saw three men standing near him. When he saw them, he ran from the tent entrance to meet them and bowed down to the ground. He said, “My lord, if I find favor with you, do not pass by your servant. Let a little water be brought, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree. Let me bring a little bread, that you may refresh yourselves, and after that you may pass on—since you have come to your servant.” So they said, “Do as you have said.”
All are welcome in this house. As Abraham and Sarah welcomed three strangers into their tent, we welcome all to the house of the Lord. If you are weary, here you will find rest. If you are lonely, here you will find friendship. If you are searching for a spiritual home, we have built this house for you. All are welcome in the name of the Lord.

Scripture Reading: Doctrine and Covenants 164:9b
When your willingness to live in sacred community as Christ’s new creation exceeds your natural fear of spiritual and relational transformation, you will become who you are called to be. The rise of Zion the beautiful, the peaceful reign of Christ, awaits your wholehearted response to the call to make and steadfastly hold to God’s covenant of peace in Jesus Christ.
