Welcome to the sol café!

Come for a coffee and let God feed your soul...

The sol café is a Christian community that formed in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, on a quest to learn more about God in an "un-church" environment. If you are new to the sol café, click here to learn a little bit more about us, check out our sol café manifesto and menu of food for thought, or browse through the postings below. And welcome to the conversation!

"For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them."
— Matthew 18:20

The sol cafe follows the Revised Common Lectionary as a guide for its weekly gatherings and studies. Never heard of it? We hadn't either until just recently. Click here for more info...

New to Christianity? Try starting here...

 

 

Cafe Night

On Sunday, July 5th, starting around 4 pm, the sol cafe will be gathering at Cafe Dabar(10816 Whyte Ave). We will start it off by reading our week's verses from the Revised Common Lectionary, a shared calendar of Bible readings:

Proper 9 (14)
July 5, 2009

II Samuel 5:1-5, 9-10
or
Ezekiel 2:1-5
Psalm 48
or
Psalm 123
II Corinthians 12:2-10 Mark 6:1-13





Or maybe we will be moved in a different direction altogether. Just come with an open heart and an open mind and a spirit of worship and the evening will most certainly turn out the way it should. Hope to see you there!

No Official Gathering on May 17th

There will be no official gathering on Sunday, May 17, although there is nothing stopping people from doing a B.Y.O.S. -- Bring Your Own Service. If anyone is thinking of dropping by Cafe Dabar around our usual 4ish time, leave a note here so that anyone else thinking of dropping by will know who to look for.

Although we will not be meeting, here are this week's readings from the Revised Common Lectionary. Take a moment, if you can, to read them today and join in some "distributed churching"!

Sixth Sunday of Easter
May 17, 2009
Acts 10:44-48 Psalm 98 I John 5:1-6 John 15:9-17
