Prayer of Confession Rev. Frenchye Magee

Holy God, you have gathered us close, close enough to feel you. And you have scattered us afar, to be a patchwork quilt of humanity. Your Spirit dwells in the hearts of every person, ready to radiate love and to be loved. We don’t always see that in the people around us. We confess we prefer our own definition of “neighbor” to yours because ours is easier. Help us know you through the neighbors you put before us. We are in need of your interrupting grace to tug at us, compel us to hear you through their voices and see you through their presence. Hear our silent confession in the quiet center of this space...

We Hear the Word

+ gosPel reading Luke 10:38-42 (NRSV)

The Word of God for the people of God.Thanks be to God.

sermon The Art of Neighboring: Rev. Nate Melcher The Power of Invitation and Interruption

Your life is a Sacred Journey – and it is about change,

growth, discovery, movement, transformation,

continuously expanding your vision of what is possible,

stretching your soul, learning to see clearly & deeply,

listening to your intuition, taking courageous risks, embracing

challenges at every step along the way.

You are on the path – exactly where

you’re meant to be right now...and from here,

you can only go forward, shaping your life story

into a magnificent tale of triumph, of healing, of courage,

beauty, wisdom, power, dignity & love.

Westminster Eco-Justice Film SeriesAugust 30 & September 7, 6pmWestminster Hall, 1220 Marquette Ave, MinneapolisIn connection with Interfaith Power and Light, Westminster is hosting a film series as a religious response to climate change. These award-winning films showcase climate change issues, obstacles in the way of a clean energy future, and an examination of humankind's role in mass extinction. As these issues span religious traditions, we are hoping this series will be an opportunity for Interfaith and Eco-Justice dialogue. Come to one or all of the films, each of which will be followed by lively discussion and snacks—all are welcome! There is no charge for the film viewings.

This is a single, "no obligation" hands-on session to explore the ringing experience. No previous handbell experience necessary, music-reading skill is a very helpful preliminary tool.
