If God exists he isn’t just churches and mathematics.
[S]he’s the forest, He’s the desert.
He’s the ice caps, that are dying.
[S]he’s everyone of us, potentially.
The leaf of grass, the genius, the political, the poet.
And if this is true, isn’t it something very important?
We are celebrating the 4th Sunday in the Season of Creation on the east lawn of TLC. We will host a Zoom session concurrently. The presider is Pastor Jane assisted by Deacon Rosean. Lectors are Ruth Alexander and David Cloyd.

#BLACKLIVESMATTER
Last Sunday we were honored to hear the story of Ernest Skelton & Caroline Crockett Brock about how we can change our country - one town at a time.
Caroline posted: I am a 45 year old white woman living in Myrtle Beach and today was the first time I spoke frankly about racism with a black man.
When Ernest Skelton, my appliance repairman, came to the front door, I welcomed him in. As this was his second visit and we’d established a friendly rapport, I asked him how he was feeling in the current national climate. When Ernest realized I wanted to know about his experience with racism (not corona virus), he began answering my questions.
What’s it like for you on a day-to-day basis as a black man? Do cops ever give you any trouble? The answers were illuminating...... Read more here
