Worship with us this Transfiguration Sunday!

February 26, 2022

Join us - online or in person - this Sunday, February 27, 2022

A very warm welcome to all joining us for this service for Transfiguration Sunday on February 27th, 2022. We have returned to hybrid worship, with some joining in person in the Sanctuary. As always, however, the livestream (and later the recorded) version of the service will be available through the links below. 


Our service this week will be lead by Coordinating Minister, Rev. Teresa Burnett Cole. The entire service will focus on exploring some of the realities of walking through life as a person with Black skin, on this, the final Sunday of Black History Month. The scripture passage, Exodus 34:29-35, will be read by Marilyn Hamilton. James Caswell, Minister of Music, will be joined by choir members Julia Barry, Martien de Leeuw, Shelley Eckford, Elizabeth Elton, Pamela Fitch, and Crystal Maitland to lead us in music and song.


Our service bulletin with hymns, texts and announcements is linked here. 


Join in on the virtual offering plate for M&S, Outreach & GSJ operational needs! If donating online, you can indicate on the 'paypal' page where you want your gift to be dedicated to. 


You can watch the video of the service here on YouTube. Please consider 'subscribing' to the GSJ YouTube channel and use the 'notification' (the 'bell' symbol on the GSJ YouTube channel) to be notified when we go live. If, for any reason, the webcast is interrupted you should still be able to connect by looking for the red 'live' thumb-nail image


After the service, there will be a zoom coffee hour at noon and the hymn sing will begin at 1pm. See the end of the service bulletin for the links, and also for special notes of how to join in as Jesse Stewart leads hymn sing participants in a collective interactive improvisation!
