Hacer un culto de adoración trascendente para un grupo compuesto por personas de diferentes etnias, culturas, y generaciones fue el desafío que se enfrentó el liderazgo de la Iglesia Metodista Unida Nuevo Pacto de Sebring, Florida. La Reverenda, Luz Maldonado, y el líder laico, Josué Rivera, comparten con detalles el proceso del proyecto “De Generación en Generación,” que trajo resultados positivos a la congregación. Para la iglesia en mención, era importante hacer los ajustes necesarios, ya que esta congregación solamente tiene un servicio de adoración por semana, al que llegan todos sus congregantes. Entonces, ¿cómo hacerlo de tal modo que pueda cubrir las expectativas y las necesidades de todos y todas? Gracias al apoyo y acompañamiento del Programa de Becas Adoración Vital, Predicación Vital del Calvin Institute of Christian Worship (CICW), eso se hizo posible.

La Iglesia Comunidad Cristiana Nuevo Pacto CBF (Compañerismo Bautista Cooperativo), es una comunidad emergente que inició de sus actividades en abril del 2020, justo cuando el mundo entero detuvo sus actividades por la pandemia de COVID-19. Pero eso no fue un obstáculo para que la Reverenda Xiomara Reboyras-Ortiz y su equipo empezaran de todos modos, pero en línea, hasta finales de ese mismo año, cuando iniciaron sus reuniones presenciales. Pero, conozcamos un poco más a la Comunidad Cristiana Nuevo Pacto. ¿Quiénes son, cómo es su culto, cómo es que adoran y en qué se distinguen de otras congregaciones hispano/latinas? Además, qué es lo que hicieron cuando fueron desafiados por el Calvin Institute of Christian Worship y cuáles fueron los logros obtenidos.

When a congregation in Long Beach, California, designed a psalms retreat as part of a worship renewal grant, they had no idea how it would grow and blossom. Engaging with psalms of confession, praise and thanksgiving, lament, and hope and trust has helped hundreds of Christians develop a new language of prayer.

Our celebration of the Lord's Supper in the Reformed tradition is sometimes touched with uncertainty. Is there something sacred about wine, or is grape juice an acceptable option? Are there rules about whether the bread should be leavened or unleavened, store-bought or home-baked, white or wheat? Is a single chalice more meaningful than a tray full of small cups? Who should bring the elements to the table—and when? Does it make any difference what we do with leftover elements?

Drawing from Psalms, Colossians, Revelation, and the global church, Carlos Colón invites us to write texts and songs of lament, protest, and hope. We will examine ways to give voice in our worship and prayer gatherings to our pain, our questions, and our desire for deep hope and the healing of all creation. We will examine songs with these themes in the "Santo, Santo, Santo / Holy, Holy, Holy" hymnal and in classical and contemporary sources.
