Exploring Family Histories

On this Memorial Day, as we make time to honor and mourn military personnel who have served in the US armed forces, we will explore how we make space for the sharing of difficult stories among our family and friends. How do we create space for life experiences to be shared, for sitting in silence together, for acknowledging the sorrows and the challenges along with the good times? This week’s worship leaders include Rev. Susan Frances, Curtis Evans, Jenn Wisegarver, and Gregory Shifrin.

This week’s offering will be shared with Night Ministry, a Chicago-based organization whose mission is to provide human connection, housing support, and health care to members of our community who are unhoused or experiencing poverty.

We will host an in-person and virtual worship service Sunday at 10:30 am. 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. 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 click here
