What does it sound like when unhoused young adults sing stories of hope? Join us this Sunday as Rev. Dr. Carter is joined by Anthony Conley, Director of Supportive Services for Covenant House California as they discuss the importance of hope during weary times. In the first chapter of Luke we read that after Elizabeth exclaims blessings upon Mary, Mary sings: “My soul magnifies God; my spirit rejoices in God.” Mary sings about a God of liberation who pulls the powerful from their thrones and lifts up the lowly. Mary sings a story of hope, one in which justice and joy are interwoven. As we prepare to celebrate Christ's birth, may we also sing stories of hope, justice, and joy. Question to consider – What gives you a “thrill of hope?” If you were to write a song of hope, what would the lyrics be? www.TheLoftLA.org

NOTEWORTHY QUOTES“We feel like if we pause for ourselves, we're going to miss something for someone else. But the truth is, if we don't take care of ourselves, we are no good for our community and for our clients.”“We have that fear that if you don't show up, every single hour of every single day, a life will be lost.

Isn't it Lovely? celebrates the conclusion of season 7 with advocate, activist, and beloved YouTube personality Heidi Calmus joining Tracy and Rachel for a special supersized episode! Long before getting recognized for her roles in skits and sketches about parenthood and marriage on the popular Dude Dad vlog, Heidi's compassion and empathy led her on a path to serve and support vulnerable youth and survivors of human trafficking and abuse through leadership positions with YMCA After School Programs, the Los Angeles Dream Center and Covenant House California. Heidi details how when online fame hit via Dude Dad's success, she could no longer provide confidential direct services, so she pivoted in ways to still work alongside the movement while staying at home with her children. Heidi and Tracy discuss the seasons of yielding in marriage and the importance of honoring each other's callings as well as how that can seemingly impact our feelings on identity; while Heidi and Rachel talk about the creation of healthy boundaries to protect the sacred parts of a public life. Heidi brings everyone to tears with her grace-filled and authentic wisdom about parenting young children; the group agrees that the car remains the best place to break down in tears (second only to the shower).

A survey conducted in 2019 found on-campus that most students in California have experienced some type of housing insecurity with the highest risk being students from marginalized communities.

This Thursday, November 15th, I will be sleeping out to raise money and awareness for homeless and trafficked youth. 1/3 of all homeless youth are found here in California and less than 3% of all shelter beds are designated for youth. That is not okay. May I ask for your help? I am accepting donations here: www.sleepout.org/participant/17615 I believe that many hands make for light work and I am asking you to donate, if it's in your heart. Thank you from the bottom of mine.
