Upcoming Services:

February 8: Repair and Reconnect, Rev. Joel Miller (Sanctuary and Zoom)

Connecting deeply, the first part of our mission statement, also mean each of us should seeks to repair our relationships when we hurt others.  It’s not an easy spiritual practice, but it’s so much better than living in the pain of broken connections.  Rev. Joel will also offer some examples of what it’s like to make amends.

 

February 15: Mortality, Rev. Dr. Debra W. Haffner (Sanctuary and Zoom)

The late Rev. Dr. Forrest Church wrote, “Religion is our human response to being alive and having to die.” In this service, we’ll explore mortality, discuss Medical Aid in Dying, and Rev. Debra will introduce us to the possibility of placing a wind phone on our grounds. JourneySongs will share their music with us.

This service may take place in the Parish Hall in order to share two videos during the service; stay tuned.
