Juneteenth: Celebrating Liberation and Resilience

On June 19th, 1865, more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was enacted, enslaved people in Galveston, Texas finally got word that they were free. In this era of information overload and calculated misinformation, when obfuscation and lies continue to be used to maintain oppressive systems, how are we called to speak truth to power and to advance liberation for all?

Rev. Eileen Wiviott leads the service with Annette Wallace as Worship Associate.

We will host an in-person and virtual worship service on Sunday, June 18th 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. 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 Deborah’s Place.
