Upcoming Service

Living Into the System

February 23, 2025

In this blended service both in person and on Zoom, we will listen to this sermon by Rev. Sarah Gibb Millspaugh. So many of us want to make positive changes in our lives, our families, our communities, our world. But sometimes the forces of inertia and “the way it’s always been done” makes it feel like the system is conspiring against us. With inspiration from gardens, nature, mystics, and radical systems thinkers, we are invited to reframe the ways we create change and “live in” to the living systems that surround us.

Children and youth in kindergarten through 12th grade will be meeting in person in their classes after being present in the sanctuary for the first part of the service. The nursery is available for babies and children from 6 weeks to 5 years old during the entire service period. You may choose either option for your child if they are 5 years old.

Masks are optional in the sanctuary.
