Who Are We?
Even without a message, you know what to do in a voicemail: tell them who you are and what you want. While it seems an easy task, lots of folks have tried to answer those questions without a lot of success.We’ll reflect on the changes that this congregation has gone through during the nearly three years of Developmental Ministry.
Random Acts of Kindness
Everyone is welcome to take part in a celebration of kindness! We’ll find ways to increase the kindness in our lives: kindness to ourselves, to those close to us, to the people we interact with but don’t really know. Glitter may be involved. Singing and laughing will surely be part of it. Come one, come all!

Together, we can help shape the future of our communities, and the nation.
“James Baldwin: Our Native Son”
James Baldwin was a significant voice of his generation. His insights into the life of African-Americans and into the life of a gay man in the ’50s and ’60s help us understand the present. His words will guide us in considering the legacy of the Civil Rights movement, and our current day.
“Jonah: A Reluctant Prophet”
Of all the prophets of the Hebrew Bible, Johah is the most unexpected. Resistant, angry, and betrayed by God. We’ll reflect on how we all might be a little bit (a lot?) like him.
“Who Knows”
Few people have the true gift of seeing the future. We can hardly imagine day to day what will come. At the start of this new year, we pause to look back upon the past year, and set our intentions for the coming year.
Carols and Brunch
