The Seven Mile Walk
Worship, Apr 27, 8:30 & 11am
In the days after the crucifixion Jesus’ disciples were traumatized. Some stayed locked in their rooms, scared and depressed, while two walked the seven-mile road from Jerusalem to Emmaus (Luke 24:13-27). Pastor Harry invites us to join them on their walk this Sunday at our 8:30 am and 11 am services and welcome the Risen Christ into our midst as they did.
Which Way Do We Go?
Adult Ed, Apr 27, 9:45am
With the changes in our pastoral leadership coming, the Session wants to hear from you. For the next few Sundays (April 27, May 11 & 18), we will have “listening sessions” at the Adult Ed hour at 9:45 in McFarland Chapel and on Zoom. What is your vision for our church? David Solem will facilitate our first listening session on April 27th. Think boldly and bring your ideas!
Our Call to Care for the Earth
Children & Youth, 8:30 & 11am
In Genesis 1, God creatively crafts all of creation including humans, who are not only designed in the image of God but are also called to be stewards of Earth and creation. We see that God’s creation is suffering but what do we do to live into our call? After receiving a blessing in the services, children and youth leave for their activities for Earth Day.
Service of Welcome
EvenSong, Apr 23, 5:30pm
You are welcome here. There is no better expression of the Christian faith than to feel welcomed, at home, among people who are glad you are here. Here we can meet Christ in one another. Join us at this Wednesday’s Celtic EvenSong Service in the sanctuary or on Zoom for a service focused on “Welcome.” To participate via Zoom, consider buying the Iona Abbey worship and music books.
