Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace. . . . — 1 Peter 4:8-10 D’Near Scott, known as “Twin,” is actually a triplet—but that’s another story. Today he stands with us in a large circle before lunchtime. Twin has spent much of his adult life working odd jobs, staying in abandoned buildings, and trying to survive. At Roseland Christian Ministries (RCM), Twin has found something more—a place where he is valued. Like a member of any family, Twin takes on roles that help us function together. He’s quick to mop floors, take out the garbage, or shovel snow when necessary. Sunday through Friday, you’ll find him at RCM, smiling, helping with odd jobs, and sharing in the meals we serve. Today, as 25 to 30 of us stand in a circle before lunchtime, tears well up in Twin’s eyes, and his voice quavers as he says, “You are my family.” As we go around the circle, each of us shares our name, gives thanks, offers prayer requests, and speaks words of encouragement. Then we pray together, lifting each other up to God in Jesus’ name, and we break bread as a community. In this way we remember that Christ calls us into a new family—his body, the church. May we always see one another as brothers and sisters in Christ, bound together in his love and grace. We are family. Father, thank you for the family we find in Christ. Help us to be united in your love. May we serve and uplift each other, reflecting your grace and compassion. Amen.
