Visit Your New Church Without Leaving Your Home

by Susan Wood

The Swedenborgian Community is the web-based congregation of the Swedenborgian Church. Our “church” features a new sermon each Sunday morning that you can either read or listen to, along with a scripture lesson and a reading from Swedenborg’s writings. Accompanying music is available, completing the experience of attending church without ever leaving your house—a great option when you’re snowed in.

What’s that, you say? You’re not home, but traveling abroad and miss the contact with your fellow Swedenborgians on Sunday morning? Well, tune in! We’re available from any computer anywhere in the world. Several folks in our group from other parts of the world enjoy our discussions and chats, focusing on Swedenborgianism and its many aspects.

Our newest feature is a monthly focus on one of the other churches in our denomination. Our initial feature is on the Church of the Holy City in Wilmington, Delaware. The article features photos of the church and the congregation and some of their projects, upcoming events and a quick link for emailing questions. If your church would like to be a featured congregation check out the website and send an email to Rev. Sage Currie.

We provide links to other Swedenborgian sites, including information on books, camps/ retreat centers, churches and resources. We recently added a link to a seasonal digest of Messenger articles online.

Stop by for a visit—www.swedenborgiancommunity.org—and see what we have to offer. Donations can be made directly on the website, using PayPal or a credit card.
