Because ministry ideas are always popping up, and good news is shared throughout the week, we make our most frequent updates on social media.  We invite you to follow us on Facebook for the most timely news about church events.

If you're an active part of our ministry circles, you may be interested in our Facebook 'Mission and Service' group, which is a space for recruiting ministry teams, sharing prayer requests and urgent needs. Contact the church office for help getting connected.

Bridging the Divide: An Invitation

2/18/2017

 
Picture
It's hard to avoid talking about politics these days.

​Have you found yourself struggling to be in civil conversation with a neighbor, friend, colleague, or family member in this highly charged political atmosphere? Many of us have, or know of, at least one relationship that has been strained because of polarized opinions.
Picture
​As people of faith we are called to attend to the vulnerable, in the name of Jesus. Because so many government policies directly impact the vulnerable, they come to the attention of people of faith.  And yet, discussing our views on important social issues in all but the safest of our circles can leave us feeling unsettled. Sometimes we are the vulnerable, seeking comfort and hope. Sometimes we would prefer to sidestep the conversation altogether rather than risk offending another who may disagree. But as followers of Jesus we are called to seek a different way. We are called to step into places of discomfort (even our own) and add a blessing - to "insert love where there is no love," in the words of St. John of the Cross.

This Sunday, February 19 at MUCC you'll be introduced to two new projects being launched, in collaboration with community partners, that will help bridge the divide. Please come. We think this work is tremendously important to our time.

Peace & blessings,
Pastor Kerri

Family Wednesdays in Lent

2/15/2017

 
You're invited to join us each Wednesday in Lent for dinner, learning suitable for all ages, and faithful conversation about claiming some of our most important faith words -

Freedom  -  Hospitality  -  Justice  -  Power  -  Truth  -  Love

Time: 6:00 -7:30 pm 
Dates: March 1, 8, 15, 22, 29 & April 5

Dinner will be provided.  If you plan to come, let us know, so we can prepare for you.  Guests are welcome!
Click Here to RSVP
​This is a cross+generational event.  We encourage participation from elders, empty-nesters, young adults, singles, couples, parents, youth and children! Our conversation questions are designed for adults through school-age. Students 3rd grade and up will probably get the most out of the conversation, but younger children are welcome to participate. When we're young, we absorb the language of faith just by being present in a faith community! If child care for a very young child is a barrier, please let us know, and we'll make arrangements.
