Rev. Terri, the pastor of Many Journeys MCC, will join us this week for Reformation Sunday. She'll preach from 2 Chronicles. She says: "Reformation doesn’t happen once. It’s happened again and again and again, in the Church and in our lives."

Join us before church at 9 am for choir rehearsal, or after church at 11:15 for the church council meeting.

Last Sunday, Polly preached on patience, as it relates to the 5th Buddhist ox-herding picture. Read it, or listen to it on our sermon page.

Several of our members and friends are participating in local Walk to End Alzheimer's events. To support Pepe Doyle's participation, donate to the Sullivan Family Team.

From Atlas Obscura: "In the basement of a university library in Texas, a small team of audio engineers has been busy trying to save black gospel music. On a typical day, after delicately removing a scuffed vinyl record from its tattered sleeve, an engineer cleans the disc, places it onto a turntable, and drops the needle. A moment later, an exhilarating music rises from the speakers, filling the room with voices not heard in half a century." The project's founder says “It would be more than a cultural disaster to forever lose this music. It would be a sin.” Read more.
