Join us!
Consider joining us in this endeavor to reclaim the biblical practice of lament in worship and daily life so that our children and youth might experience a deeper, more authentic faith and discipleship. Perhaps you have an idea or wish to share your experience? Perhaps you would like to join us in an upcoming workshop or webinar?

“The church needs to tell the whole story of God in worship. Part of telling that whole story begins by providing space for all ages to lament.
