"When Is It OK to Rest? " — led by the Rev. Anya Sammler-Michael, co-senior minister. Rest is necessary for life, but how do we claim enough rest when there is so much to do! On this Sunday we will also preview a new liturgical format crafted by our worship team.
“Ask Away!” A Question Box Sunday — led by the Revs. Anya and Scott Sammler-Michael, co-senior ministers. Once a year our congregation is invited to ask the ministers questions and the answers to these questions become the sermon. What are your most pressing questions? Do you wonder about God, salvation, faith, or hope? Do you ponder the history of our faith tradition? Do you have a hankering to know something about our congregation?
"The Courage to Continue" — led by the Rev. Anya Sammler-Michael, senior co-minister. Our annual Flower Communion Pride Celebration honors the struggles that have been surmounted, recognizing the work that needs to be done, and affirming the beauty in every soul.
"The Many And The One"— led by the Rev. Anya Sammler-Michael, senior co-minister. The most infinitesimal particle, the quark, still contains a multitude. There is no one person, one idea, or one moment in time that does not contain and contribute to diversity. This Mother's Day we celebrate the uniqueness of motherhood and the diversity of its expression and experience.
"A Beautiful Mess" — led by the Rev. Anya Sammler-Michael, senior co-minister. This is the story in the service where we discover the beauty in the mess.
The biblical scriptures are complex and often conflictual. They speak about war as often as they speak about peace. In this service we look at the concept of a "Promised Land" with reference to the current and historical strife in the land of Israel and Palestine, asking "whose promised land is it?"
