On the eve of the presidential inauguration and the holiday honoring the Rev Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., we reflect on the historical ups and downs in the long arc towards racial justice in the U.S. We take the long view looking towards the future, always keeping love at the center. 

9:15 AM: An In-Person, All-Ages Service

Led by DRE Colleen Thoele, and Music Director Emily Hall.

10:00 AM: Lifespan Religious Exploration

Religious exploration for our children and youth in classrooms.

10:00AM Facilitated Small Reflection Groups for adults and youth

This is an opportunity for members, friends, and visitors to reflect and share on wondering questions based on the day’s sermon topic. Everyone (including first-time visitors) is welcome to drop in and join us in Hobbs Hall for this small group connection time.

This Week’s Wondering Questions:

  1. What is your earliest memory when race or racial difference entered your consciousness? How did it impact you?
  2. The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King used the term “Beloved Community” to describe a vision for a world where there was no injustice, racial or otherwise. What sustains you in your personal journey toward justice?

10:00 AM Social Hour

Our social hour in Hobbs Hall is open to all, and is an alternative to the Small Reflection Groups. Connect with others, learn about the church, find out about programs and other opportunities to connect.

11:00 AM: A Multi-Platform, Traditional Service (both in person and on Zoom)

Led by Jennifer May, Lois Weir, Worship Associate Rev. Christie Anderson, and Music Director Emily Hall.
