March 30th Rev. Lucy Ijams
"This I Believe"
For the last seven years, in months with five Sundays, Lucy creates a service with the input of a few other people. Three members of the youth group have said they'd participate in this one. At the Worship Workshop on March 1st we will begin our preparations for today's service. We honor the diversity of beliefs in the congregation by respectfully listening to individual expressions.

"Absolutely Fabulous"
In this service, we will examine one of “Friedman’s Fables” created by a family therapist and ordained rabbi of some renown. Ed Friedman wrote a group of “outrageous” stories that reveal truths about how human beings relate to each other. Paradox, absurdity, and mischief are Friedman’s tools for discovery.

"Inside The Welcoming Congregation"
In 2000 this church voted to become a Welcoming Congregation. To receive this designation we engaged in a year-long educational process with the intent of understanding how to be fully inclusive of bisexual, gay, lesbian, and transgender people, increase our understanding of people with differing sexual orientations and gender identities, and learn how to intentionally extend our outreach into the b/g/l/t community. This service will explore what it means to be a Welcoming Congregation and explore new ways to put our commitment into action.
