We Walk by Faith and Not by Sight, April 17

Megan Sharp, soloist; Jonathan Schakel, pianist

In this strange time of Covid-19, we find ourselves relating more and more to Thomas in the John 20 text that is the appointed text in the Lectionary this week; verses 19-30. How can we feel like an Easter people when we are isolated and alone, unable to see and embrace family and friends. Do the Alleluias that were sung on our behalf ring as true if we do not sing them ourselves? 
This week I share with you the hymn that we often sing together on this second Sunday of Easter; We Walk by Faith and Not by Sight with words by Henry Alford, tune by Samuel McFarland, and harmonization by Richard Proulx. I hope that you might find this a comfort and a reminder that God is always near, even when we are doubting and feeling alone. Our faith is one that does not rely upon our imperfect vision, but on the knowledge of the love of God. Easter blessings, Megan

An Invitation to Palm Sunday Worship from Lynne, April 2

Lynne invites us to gather our palm frond or a branch from a flowering bush — whatever will help us celebrate Palm Sunday on April 5 together online.

An Invitation to Worship from Ken, March 26

“Now is not the time to lose faith,” seems like a good sermon title for the story of Lazuras and for the times we’re living. Ken also sings “I’ll Fly Away” for us!

God, Be the Love to Search and Keep Me
Prayer of St. Patrick

Megan Sharp, soloist; Jonathan Schakel, pianist

“One prayer that I am finding helpful in this time of constant change and worry is the Prayer of Saint Patrick or Saint Patrick’s Breastplate. This prayer reminds us of Christ’s presence everywhere around us and the strength that comes from our Christian faith.” Megan

A Invitation to Worship from Dorothy, March 21, 2020

“I’ve been thinking about this recommendation that we should practice social distancing, and I wonder if we can see in that an invitation to realize a deeper sense of community.” Dorothy

A Message from Lynne, March 21, 2020

“We are a creative people, because we were made by a creative God, one who continually offers us opportunities to use our imaginations and our intellects…I invite you to see worship and Christian Formation a bit differently at this time.” Lynne

A Song from Ken, March 20, 2020

“Jesus and a woman at the well meet…and Jesus talks about this living water, a water that wells up inside us, a spring water that is always there for us.” Ken

A Message from Ken, March  18, 2020

“How do we begin to deal with our own anxiety or somehow move forward through it and not let it hinder loving and caring for the people around us?…We have a choice…Will I be swept up in anxiety…or will I find a place to ground myself?” Ken
