A Different Way of Being

Speaker: Rev. Annette Mattson

A couple thousand years ago, a wandering rabbi named Jesus, threatened the ruling elite with counter-culture teachings that emphasized empathy, social justice, mercy and peace-making. He challenged the hierarchies of wealth and power with his alternative plan for how to live and be in the world, and those principles are just as relevant today. “Blessed are the Peacemakers” is a famous phrase from the Beatitudes and the Sermon on the Mount. In this talk we will explore those teachings and our role in creating a more compassionate world.

In the Fertile Space of the Unknown, Spring Rises

Presented by Kathryn Richer, RScP
and Sean AB Larkin, RScP

Fifth Sundays are devoted to ritual in our community. Today we will tend to what has grown in our inner garden through the dark of winter, relieve what weighs the heart, and open to returning light. Through contemplative reflection, guided meditation, and shared breath, we enter the fertile mystery where renewal begins.

You Are A Prayer Answered

Speaker: Rev. Bridget McCann

Each and every one of us is a beneficial presence in the world. Regardless of what you may have done, or how many times you go astray, you matter. Some of us know directly how we matter in the life of another person. Others of us may never know where or how or for whom we mattered. But, rest assured, you are the answer to someone’s prayer.

Boundaries Build Bridges

Speaker: Rev. Bridget McCann

Setting boundaries is essential if we want to express who we have come here to be. It also helps us not be doormats!

Antidotes for Fear:
Inspiration from Dr. King

Speaker: Rev. Bridget McCann

Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., spoke often about how to “harness and master” fear. He experienced a whole lot of scary stuff, and still he kept on, despite the fear. Today, we draw inspiration from the man himself and from his sermon, “Antidotes for Fear”.
