Flower Communion Sunday

As we express our gratitude to the volunteer Religious Education teachers who have made our Ministry with Children and Youth a reality, worship leader and Director of Religious Education, Kerri Meyer, will pause to reflect on the causes and the consequences of R.E.'s growth in both enrollment and commitment.  We wrestle with crowded Sunday School classrooms, but can we actually ever have “too many kids”?  As the psalmist sang, our quiver is full.  Now where shall we aim our bow?

Our Universalist forbearers used the phrase "our larger hope" to refer to their belief in universal salvation. How many of us have come to know God’s love because our mothers have given us the kind of love "we did not earn and cannot buy," a love that is so very much like grace.
