June 21: Living by Heart

6/3/2015

 
The theme for our worship service this Sunday, June 21 is “Living by Heart.” Dawn will present an introduction to our upcoming summer sermon series based on the Scott Alexander book, Everyday Spiritual Practice as well as her own journey with poetry as spiritual practice. We hope you will join us. 

“Spiritual practices…are tools, not ends. They help us to learn to slow down, to pay attention, to focus, or to empty. They are not definitions of spirituality themselves. The deep meaning of spirituality is breath. Breath is the taking in of life-giving essence from the world around us, and the release, in turn, of life-giving essence. It is a metaphor for our interdependencies: the fact that we change and are changed by our environment in a continuous play of creation. Spiritual practices are aimed at helping us understand that connectedness…”
~ Susan Manker-Seale


*And a heartfelt apology to Annette Pratt who was prepared to share a beautifully sung prelude at the beginning of service last Sunday, only to be thwarted by an unexpected brain malfunction within our minister, who managed to skip the prelude altogether! Annette will be given the opportunity to share her talent once again this coming Sunday…promise!

June 14: The Flower Service

6/3/2015

 
The tradition of this service is for each personattending worship to bring with them a single flower (preferably your favorite kind of flower, if possible!) and upon arrival to place it in one of the vases provided at the front of the worship space. The ritual of the flowers will be explained during the service, but the gist of it is this: “the Flower Service is a symbol of our unity in diversity. It is a celebration of the earth's beauty. It is also a lesson in the fragility and beauty of life. And finally, it represents for us the strength and unity that comes from rootedness in community.” 

*Please know that is not required for you to bring a flower to participate in this service!
And we will have extra flowers available if you happen to forget to bring one. But if you are willing and able – please bring a flower with you to this very special service. 

*We will also be honoring our 2015 high school graduates during this special multigenerational service.
