Rev. Peter Connolly preaching It's coming up to the 60th anniversary of "Mississippi Freedom Summer" and the 54-mile march for voting rights from Selma to Montgomery. Today, we look back on lessons learned and consider lessons still to be learned. There will be special music from the Chalice Choir singing Like a Mighty Stream.
Build a Bear of Wholeness For our children in RE on Sunday mornings, we will continue to explore our relationship with our faith home. We will consider the joys, the responsibilities and the protections that come from our family home and how they relate and can grow with our faith home. Nursery During Church Niko Pucillo-Dunphy and Jesse Hoyle offer child care during the church service. Please feel free to bring your infants and toddlers to have fun with Niko and Jesse while you are in the sanctuary participating in the service. Kelly Lownds, DRE
During our congregational meeting in October, I mentioned that our funds for building and grounds maintenance were nearly depleted. We would like to have a plan to deal with this before we draft our next annual budget.
Eight years ago, the congregation faced several serious concerns about our church building. Our furnace was on its last legs, the office administrator worked in an unheated tower, the roof was leaking, and the new minister needed an office. We created the I Love My Church campaign to address these and other projects.
This event is being held at the New Bedford Whaling Museum, 18 Johnny Cake Hill, New Bedford. Rustin tells the story of Bayard Rustin, activist and advisor to Martin Luther King, Jr., who faced racism and homophobia as he helped orchestrate the 1963 March on Washington.
Youth Group is scheduled for January 14 and January 28, 2024. We will continue with the element of air. We will work on our mural and start installing it in the Parish Hall. We meet from 5:00 to7:00 p.m. in the Parish Hall. Kelly Lownds, Director of Religious Exploration
