September 7th:
Gathering Into the Sacred Circle September 7th is
called Recovenanting Sunday. In the early days of Israel, the people
came together once a year to renew their covenant with God. As we
gather again after the summer and meet new people who have joined us,
we renew our Christian commitment to learning and to serving God
together in the community of the church. We are all invited to Gather
Into the Sacred Circle at worship this day as we summarize in
drama form the Hebrew Scripture texts we have read this summer and
celebrate communion together as we recall the first Passover.
Nan and Bruce will be enjoying 2 weeks
of vacation in late September. Worship leader on September 21st
