Celebrating the Trout Lily I came across in the woods on Earth Day, April 22, 2020
Earth Day wisdom from the Dalai Lama
It is not an easy thing to be a disciple of Christ these days, in fact, it has never been easy! There are many thing making life challenging right now, and yet ...we are still called to care for one another, and keep going. In today's message I want to acknowledge our collective and individual struggles, and offer a prayer for renewed strength and patience. Wherever you are this day I hope you are safe, and you are well! Peace, Rev. Sarah
Please join Rev. Doug Peck & Rev. Susan Cole, Wednesday, April 21st at 1:00 pm for our virtual book study of "We Make the Road by Walking"! Email [email protected] if you need help accessing the meeting. It’s never too late to be part of this great group of adventurers who are seeking aliveness! (Don’t have the book? Haven’t read Chapter 36? No worries! Recommended but not necessary)
The Knox United Church Drive-Thru Pork Chop BBQ that was recently rescheduled to May 19th has been postponed again due to Covid-19 restrictions. We are still hoping to hold the BBQ once regulations alllow it but at the present time are not able to confirm that date. Thanks for your patience. If you have ordered and paid for tickets and would like a refund please contact your ticket seller or PM me. Thanks and stay safe!
God, you have called us to be pilgrims. Forgive us when we weary of the journey and seek security rather than the open road. Forgive us when we feel... the risk of the journey is too great. Grant us pilgrim spirits in this Lenten season and lead us to the new life of Easter. Amen. from "Celebrate God's Presence" (5I002). [Photo: Ale, Flickr (CC BY 2.0)] #UCCan #Lent #LENT2020
Check out this great video: "What is Lent?" "Lent is not a race to Easter, it’s not a countdown to chocolate bunnies. Lent is a journey, and as cliche as it might be, it’s about the journey and not the destination. It’s about being where you are, not where you’re going. Because Easter is coming, whether we’re ready or not. But Lent comes first, inviting us to slow down and place our feet right behind Jesus as we live the only way we can ever live, step by step, day by day, moment by moment, breath by breath." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKO1R8MwLeA&feature=youtu.be

Tuesday check-in with Rev. Sarah Grady. Jesus, Violence and Power: Jesus took his disciples to the mountain top to try to help them understand that he was the messiah with the Transfiguration. Have you had a "mountain top experience" that changed your perspective on something? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8YsQ_oEkQU
