Sunday Service: "If I Were King of the Forest"

"If I Were King of the Forest"  

—Rev. Hank Peirce, Guest Minister

The older I get, the crankier I am about fear. My own fear, other people’s fear. I can see back across decades to all of the times when I have stood moving my lips soundlessly like the cowardly lion in The Wizard of Oz while some disembodied voice thundered, “QUIET!” And, way too many times, I have obeyed that formless voice.

We will be together at church and on Facebook Live. 

• Given the seasonal spike in COVID cases and the spread of other infectious diseases like flu and RSV, we encourage the wearing of masks when we are together. Masks are an easy and simple way to minimize worry over sharing germs as we enjoy each other’s company.  For those of you who would like to maintain social distance in the sanctuary (which has several air filters running every Sunday), the front side of the sanctuary by the wooden Lydia Breed sculpture is reserved for you. (See diagram here)
• For the morning offertory you may donate online here. Those with joys, sorrows, milestones and prayer requests to share with the minister and congregation are welcome to submit them here.
