We will host an in-person and virtual worship service on Sunday, August 14th at 10:15 am.

Social Transformation Through the Arts – Drama

Social movements for change have always been empowered and expressed through the arts. We draw on this power and inspiration to build solidarity and strength for the journey toward a more just and whole society. We continue our exploration with drama. How has theater shaped social transformation in this country and how can we use its power today?

We are grateful for the shared wisdom and experience of Dr. D. Soyini Madison, professor emeritus in the Department of Performance Studies at Northwestern. She focuses on ethnography and performance and the intersections of local activism, the political economy of human rights, and indigenous performance tactics. Sarah Vanderwicken and Rev. Eileen Wiviott are worship participants as well.

Please submit your Joys and Sorrows through this online form. If you submit a message by 9 am, we will try to read it that Sunday. Thank you for your patience as we are adapting to best serve you all! Note there will only be one service time so that we can gather together as a whole community of faith. You can still give to the shared offering through “text to give,” mail a check to the office with “shared offering” in the memo line, or go to our website and hit “give” on the upper right or click here. This Sunday’s shared offering recipient is the Interfaith Action of Evanston.
