WOMEN AT THE WELL - FEB 9 and FEB 23

Women of all ages are invited to join us for the month of February as we explore topics relating to building a more compassionate world. On Sunday, February 9th, we will watch a presentation by Rev. Barbara Brown Taylor at the Westminster Town Hall on “Finding God in the Faith of Others.” She will speak openly about her new book, “Holy Envy” and her experiences teaching world religions to college students. On February 23rd, we will watch a Super Soul interview with Norman Lear entitled, The Legacy Norman Lear Hopes to Leave Behind. How can we measure the cultural influence of television icon Norman Lear? At one point during the ’70s, more than 120 million people a week tuned in to his shows like All in the Family, Good Times and The Jeffersons. Oprah asks the legend how he would like to be remembered. Norman answers with two simple words: “He mattered.” The 93-year-old then adds his signature goodbye. “I will say it to you because I always do: to be continued.”  WATW begins at 11:30 Am and meets in the youth room.  Join us for both of these days as we engage in meaningful conversation and learn how to become more compassionate people. All are welcome!

“Seeds of Faith” Book discussion

SUNDAY, JANUARY 26, at 11:30 am

Join us on January 26, 2020 at 11:30 AM in the North Lounge for a discussion of Seeker of Stars by Susan Fish, a fresh retelling of the story of the Magi that will appeal to people of all ages and faiths.  As a boy, Melchior is fascinated by stars but has rigid obligations to apprentice with his rug-making father. When his life is radically changed, he is propelled onto a new path full of danger and glory in pursuit of a special star. The journey leads Melchior to reflect on life and death, dreams and duty, and to find unusual reconciliation within his family and with the God he never knew he sought.

ANNUAL MEETING - SUNDAY FEBRUARY 2

Join us on Sunday, February 2nd as we hold our Annual Meeting of our congregation.

Please join us for this important day in the life of our church as we hear about the exciting work and significance of our church over the last year.  During the annual meeting, our Sunday school children will meet in the South Lounge for a special outreach project and brunch. Make plans to join us for this special day together. 

 “CONFUCIUS, BUDDHA, JESUS, & MUHAMMAD”

NEW PROGRAM FOR 9 AM SUNDAY SEMINAR BEGINS JANUARY 6

On January 6, our 9 AM Sunday Seminar begins a new DVD course entitled, “Confucius, Buddha, Jesus, and Muhammad.”  Rhodes College professor, Dr. Mark W. Muesse, guides viewers through a study of the four most influential religious leaders in all of human history.  Dr. Muesse writes, “Confucius. Buddha. Jesus. Muhammad. Four extraordinary sages who influenced world civilization more deeply than any other human beings in history. As just one measure of their importance, current rankings of the most influential people in history consistently put them at or near the top of the list. Four centuries after the rise of the scientific worldview, their influence in human affairs continues to be fundamental, underscoring issues ranging from questions of ethics and justice to religious and political conflicts to other issues that dominate today's headlines.”  In December, the seminar completed a study of Hinduism also taught by Dr. Muesse.  Participants greatly enjoyed his teaching style!  Dr. Muesse is a Professor of Religious Studies and Director of the Asian Studies Program at Rhodes College in Memphis, Tennessee. He earned a B.A., summa cum laude, in English Literature from Baylor University and a Master of Theological Studies, a Master of Arts, and a Ph.D. in the Study of Religion from Harvard University. The 9 AM Sunday Seminar meets downstairs in the North Lounge.
