Sunday, October 15 – Seeds of Grace Worship: “Who writes the history?”
5:00 p.m. Gathering,
5:30 p.m. Worship in person
In October, Seeds of Grace worship is again inspired by the movie Avatar: The Way of Water. It’s the story of the inhabitants of Pandora who are threatened with destruction by visitors from Earth, who seek to exploit and colonize the planet. Join us this month as we reflect on our own history of exploitation and colonization. How are we impacted by the narrow perspectives of those who have written the prevailing narratives of our history, and how can we help others tell the stories that need to be heard?
Each Seeds of Grace service is focused on a timely theme, inviting participants into conversation in a comfortable setting. Come for informal reflection, discussion and contemplation inspired by music of all kinds, ancient and contemporary readings, and personal sharing or just listening. In the midst of a chaotic world, a glimmer of joy and light can be found in our circle as we gather over light refreshments with fellow travelers at Edwards Church.
Seeds of Grace worship is offered in person on the third Sunday of each month. Weather permitting, we meet under the tent in front of Jonathan House (in Susan Dickerman Hall if it’s cold or raining). Please feel free to invite others to join us; we hope to see you there!
