Faith Ed @ 9:45 am | Esther: For Such a Time as This
The Book of Esther is a magnificent narrative that refuses to interpret life as being driven by coincidence or happenstance. In Esther, Haman, and Mordecai, we trace the movement of the divine hand as God collaborates with God’s risk-taking people to rescue them from the hand of their enemies.
This Sunday's class will be led by Whitney Hunter-Thomson.

Railroad Ties documents six descendants of fugitive slaves and abolitionists who come together at Plymouth Church to discover more about their lineage. As the diverse group uncovers details about their ancestors, the story of the Underground Railroad unfolds in moving fashion, revealing the impact history has on personal identity, family and shaping future generations.
Produced by SundanceTV and Ancestry, this short film premiered at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival and features our own Melissa Collom.
This is an opportunity to see our history come to life and how the values of our founding members echo in the lives of people today.

Annoying People & God's Grace
|
|
You and I try to be nice. We are friendly. We smile. We are kind. Some people make it hard. Some people are annoying. People who park illegally, and get away with it. People on the subway who put their phone on speaker—and it is never the conversation you want to listen in on....

A New Year's Wish List from CAMBA | One Sunday left to give!
CAMBA, our social service agency partner in the church shelter program, is asking those who have sheltered their clients to help in providing gifts to the homeless people it serves. CAMBA has created a list of specific requests. It would be great to have Plymouth help fill these wishes.
Choose a client from the online list, sign your name, purchase the gift/gifts (wrapping optional), label them with the recipient's name and bring them to Plymouth
by this Sunday. If you would like to include a card with an encouraging message, we know it would be well received. If possible, include a gift receipt (in case an exchange is needed). There is a donation bin in Hillis Hall.
