+“A Heart Strangely Warmed” By Getting Rid of Debt webinar (May 24 @ 5:30 PM). 19th century preacher Henry Ward Beecher said, “A church debt is the devil’s salary” which probably seems a little extreme today. Many of our churches would not be in the buildings we are without some debt. We do know that money that is spent to retire debt (or in some cases, to simply pay the interest on debt) is money that could be used to expand mission and ministry. Join Ken Sloane and his guest Joe Park of Horizons Stewardship as they discuss church debt and what to do about it. Register at this link.
+Trustee work day coming soon! Watch for details in News You Can Use.
+Two years after the death of George Floyd: Antiracism, #BLM, and the United Nations (May 25 @ 7:30 AM): As people continue to challenge the systemic racism that has devalued the lives of Black and Brown people globally, many are asking the question: why do some of these tragic events spark a stronger call for change than others? George Floyd’s murder also revived the concept of antiracism. The webinar will explore, in practice, what it means to be antiracist. Participants will also be invited to reflect on the role played by Christian nationalism in reinforcing white supremacy and racial subjugation, thereby fueling racism, xenophobia, and racial discrimination. Register here.
+Volunteers are needed for fellowship time on Sundays. Sign up on the volunteer page at the back of the sanctuary or email the church office. Simplicity is encouraged! Compostable plates, cups, and napkins are provided. Watch for detailed instructions in June’s Epistle. Contact Pat Cleaveland if you have questions. Thank you! On June 5, fellowship time will move to 9:45 a.m.
