Join us this Sunday, April 16, 2023 for a celebration of the Earth
Please join us in person or via our livestream this Sunday, Earth Sunday, April 16 2023.
As we witness first hand the rebirth of spring, we are so thrilled that you are here with us in person or on-line to witness and celebrate how God is revealed in the Earth and the world around us and also by recognizing what we can do in an era of climate justice. We will also witness and celebrate a baptism, Maeve James Birch, daughter of Lisa Elizabeth Stinson and David Michael Birch.
Rev. Dr. Teresa Burnett-Cole will lead us in worship. The reading will be from John 20:19-3. James Caswell, our Minister of Music, and the choir will lead us in music and song; the anthem will be 'Without Seeing You' by David Haas.
If you'd like to read along the sermon texts, prayers, hymn lyrics and even the children's story, find the service bulletin linked here.
