Telling Multiple Stories / The 2%
9:15 AM: Telling Multiple Stories
An in-person all-ages service led by Music Director Emily Hall, DRE Colleen Thoele, with reflection by Rev. Renee Ruchotzke
Our faith has a long history with lots of changes to what we believe over the years as our faith has become more inclusive of diverse cultures. This year congregations have been thinking about how we might reframe our theology as we put love at the center. We will also have a special porcine guest!

Facilitated small reflection groups for adults in Hobbs Hall using our wondering questions:
- Of the values Justice, Equity, Transformation, Plurality, Interdependence and Generosity, which is the most important to you, and why?
- How does Love influence that value?
- What is the second-most important value, and how does Love influence it?

11:00 AM: The 2%
A multi-platform service (both in-person and on Zoom) led by CLM Lori Mirkin-McGee with Worship Associate Wendy Mirkin-McGee.
May 5, 2024 is Yom HaShoah, International Holocaust Remembrance Day. When we think of the Holocaust, it is natural to think of the atrocities committed by the Nazis. We know that six million Jews lost their lives during this genocide. After one of the darkest chapters of human history, the Jews who survived began to tell their stories of how they endured, how they moved forward, and how they found hope. This service will explore some of those stories and shine a light on the survivors of this horrible human tragedy.
