OCTOBER
Ministry Theme: Courage
October 25: Friends and Family Day: "The Courage to Dream, The Audacity to Dance"
Rev. Verdis LeVar Robinson
Worship Associate: Pam Gray
In times like these, how do we dare to envision a future? How do we find joy? Something lives within us that cannot be erased by destruction and devastation. Join us as we welcome friends and family as well as the Wild Angels Dance Theater Company of Deep River for this service of uncontainable joy, dreaming, and liberation. Make sure to stick around after service for some celebratory cake!
Poetry circle follows the service. All are welcome!
Make-up session for greeter training follows the service.
NOVEMBER
Ministry Theme: Healing
November 1: Ritual of Remembrance: "The Memory Tree"
Rev. Verdis LeVar Robinson
Worship Associate: Paul Carolan
Each year, we reflect on those souls that we have lost with our Ritual of Remembrance. We will remember them by saying their names and by writing their names on leaves to create a memory tree - a ritual we began last year. Let us grieve and let us love together.
Good Neighbor Offering: New England Grassroots Environment https://grassrootsfund.org/donate
November 8: Child Dedication - "United We Stand, Divided We Fall"
Rev. Verdis LeVar Robinson
Worship Associate: Pam Neidig
After a tense season of divisiveness, let us ponder how we can move past the divides toward healing. Is unity ever possible? If so, what will it take? Perhaps we can find inspiration by exploring “The Four Oxen and the Lion,” one of Aesop's fables.
TOWN HALL Follows the service
November 15: "A Balm in Gilead"
Rev. Verdis LeVar Robinson
Worship Associate: Karen Ethier-Waring
The African American spiritual song "There Is a Balm in Gilead" compares a healing resin to a faith that never fails to heal spiritual wounds and harm. In this service, we will explore what brings great comfort, relief, or recovery during hard times in our lives. What is your balm in Gilead?
Food to the People: canned and boxed soups
November 22: Bread Communion- "Soul Food: The Healing Power of Breaking Bread Together"
Multigenerational Service
Rev. Verdis LeVar Robinson
Worship Associate: Lee Tighe
It is that time of year when, as a congregation, we pause in thanksgiving for all that is our lives. We will break bread together in our annual Bread Communion. In all things, we are grateful.
