“All Souls Sunday” – Rev. Bill Gupton
Sunday October 27, 2024, 10:30 a.m.
Due to the election, we will celebrate All Souls Sunday a week early this year. On this memorable morning, we memorialize all those loved ones who have departed this life in the past 12 months – church members, family members, dear friends. We acknowledge the influence and impact they had on our lives, and the fact that we, too, are mortal, and will one day follow these ancestors into what lies beyond.

How can we teach empathy, encourage tolerance, and better respect diversity for ourselves, with our children, and in our communities? One way can be playing for peace! Join us for this all ages worship service as we discover peace through play, meditation, music, and more! The activities and experiences of our annual Peace Camp will inspire the service, including the blessing of the peace pole created by our peace campers.

“The Clock is Ticking” – Rev. Bill Gupton
Sunday October 6, 2024, 10:30 a.m.
It is 30 days until one of the most consequential elections in American history.
Yes, you’ve heard that before (more or less every four years now throughout this century), but we can hardly imagine — and don’t really care to — a more important choice than the one facing American voters a month from now.
What kind of country will we be? What legacy will we leave our children, and theirs?
Early voting begins Tuesday, October 8, 2024. Let’s look at the issues, and get “Fired Up and Ready to Go!”

“Teach Your Children Well” – Rev. Bill Gupton
Sunday September 29, 2024, 10:30 a.m.
The leaves are turning, school is back in session, politicians and parents are arguing over what we should and should not teach our children, books are being banned — it’s just another fall in an America divided by a culture war that is, by the way, very real. As a faith tradition, we hope to teach our children our beliefs and values. Let’s talk about that this morning.

“It’s About Our Future” – Rev. Bill Gupton
Sunday, September 15, 2024, 10:30 a.m.
It seems, this fall, that there’s a lot of talk about the future. And that’s a good thing. We should talk — and think — and make thoughtful, informed decisions about — our future. So let’s look to the future together this morning.
Note also that there is an important congregational meeting following the service; all church members are urged to attend.
