Join us for worship as we begin the sermon series “Creation Care and Climate Justice.” In this first sermon Pastor Teresa will consider the gift and challenge of fire both in our spiritual lives and in the natural world. The sanctuary choir will sing “A Blessing by Fire” Diana Macalintal at the in person service and the online service premiers at 11 am on our YouTube channel. | “You are not Atlas carrying the world on your shoulder. It is good to remember that the planet is carrying you.” – Vandana Shiva
“All creation is the Lord’s, and we are responsible for the ways in which we use and abuse it….let us recognize the responsibility of the church and its members to place a high priority on changes in economic, political, social, and technological lifestyles to support a more ecologically equitable and sustainable world leading to a higher quality of life for all of God’s creation.” – The Social Principles of The UMC |
