This Sunday, Rev. Anne Mason will reflect on James Luther Adams’ suggestion that our society is connected through voluntary associations, bound together by covenant. How can we prepare ourselves to be full partners in the religious covenant which is one of the gifts of our free faith? What do we need to ask from each other to create a church where we can all seek the truth in love?

There will be Sunday School for Pre-K through 8th Grade. The nursery will be open for babies and toddlers.

The Sanctuary Choir will sing Thomas Tallis’ serene a cappella “If Ye Love Me” and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s poignant “Let us Love in Peace (from The Beautiful Game). Austin Burns will sing Andrew Lloyd Webber’s powerful and extroverted “Love Changes Everything” (from Aspects of Love). For the centering music and postlude, Rip Jackson will play Mendelssohn’s lyrical “Praeludium in G Major” and Johann Pachelbel’s spirited “Fuga in C Major” on the organ.

Listen to last Sunday’s sermon by Rev. Anne Mason, “For Waters Shall Break Forth.”
