Introducing Rev. Eric

Everyone is invited to experience a Passover Seder as a community celebration. This Seder will highlight liberation and the symbolism of the holiday. The Seder will be followed by sharing matzo ball soup.

So much of our rhetoric around the resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth revolves around “correct belief” or orthodoxy, but perhaps we should be talking about orthopraxy, or “correct praxis.” How we live out the resurrection is so much more important than what we believe about resurrection. During this service, we will explore how to be a “resurrection people,” who boldly proclaim that another way is possible. We don’t have to live in fear and be led through violence and coercion. We can be the people, guided by Love and cooperation, who commit to building a better world here and now.

Sarah Flynn joins us this Sunday morning with her presentation on being a good stranger. Her central theme will be showing kindness in situations where one’s first inclination might be to shut down or run away. In three short stories from her road life: a car accident in California, meeting a homeless couple in Montana, and participating in community safety in Colorado, she will highlight how strangers have helped her and how she has tried to pay it forward.
