Let It Be a Dance

11:15 a.m. only

How might we dance with life’s challenges: in and out, back and forth, following and leading, learning and teaching, holding and releasing, engaging and resting, lightly and seriously? Can we do a dance of wholeness – “both/and” in an “either/or” world? With Sarah Bush Dance Project.

Unacceptable

9:30 and 11:15 a.m.

From the figures of the Old Testament to the activists, preachers and leaders of today, the prophetic tradition has and continues to be a vital part of our world. People, often unpopular and marginalized in their time, have told the truth as they see it no matter the consequences. In our time, this tradition has never been more important, and our truth-telling is more needed than ever.

Resist and Release

9:30 and 11:15 a.m.

While anger at injustice can be useful in fueling our work to build a better world, it can easily turn into exhaustion and bitterness. Join us for a worship experience about why our call is to work not for domination but liberation for all, and a ritual to release the grudges that have built up in our hearts.

New Year’s Service and Potluck Brunch

No 9:30 service, potluck at 11:15

What better way to start the New Year than with brunch at church! Reverends Kristin and Christian will kick things off with a short service of readings and songs, and then we’ll break bread and chat together about how we can make 2017 a good year for ourselves, our congregation, and our wider communities.
