Beginning on March 1st at 10am, and continuing on each Wednesday morning, we will meet at Woodside Road UMC (in Watters Hall) for this book study. You are welcome whether or not you have read the book (and the book is available online from your favorite bookseller). Reach out to w[email protected] if you want to join in a hybrid format.
Ash Wednesday Worship
You are invited into a time of story telling and music as we begin our Lenten journeys.
Preparing for the Season of Lent
This Sunday is “Transfiguration Sunday.” We will be worshipping in the sanctuary and over YouTube at 10:30am. Our scripture text comes from Matthew 17:1-9. We will begin a six week series exploring Lenten texts through African American Spirituals using the text Plenty Good Room.
Wednesday, February 22nd is Ash Wednesday. Readers and Musicians are putting pieces together so we can have virtual worship service available anytime on Ash Wednesday. That link will be posted separately.
Sunday, February 26th — Katie will be away with her family. Rev. Ben Meyers, who served for a good long while at the Unitarian Universalist Church in San Mateo, will be the guest preacher. The YouTube link for that service is here.
Wednesday, March 1st @ 10am — We will begin the series Embracing the Uncertain: A Lenten Study for Unsteady Times. We are currently planning to meet in person at the church. A hybrid option can be available if folks want to join in remotely (we’d be learning as we go).

On Sunday, November 6th we will celebrate the saints in worship. There will be a table for you to share pictures of those saints in your life who have joined the great cloud of witnesses. We will also follow communion with the opportunity to light candles in memory of loved ones.
