Ash Wednesday Service via Facebook Live
2026-08-08 12:09
As with so many things in this past year, our Ash Wednesday worship service will be a bit different from our usual tradition. It will be streamed on Facebook Live at 7pm (in lieu of that evening’s prayer service). Though it will obviously not include the imposition of ashes, we will continue the tradition of burning away all that separates us from the love and will of God, and will reflect upon the somber yet hopeful themes that this holy start to the Lenten season brings.
The video of the service will also be uploaded to YouTube.

Greening the Bible: A Biblical Basis for Creation Care
2026-08-08 12:09
In addition to Environmental Justice Sunday, our new Environmental Justice ministry team is sponsoring a 4-session bible study during the month of February. It will be led by the Rev. Dr. Clint McCann, who is the Evangelical Professor of Biblical Interpretation at Eden Theological Seminary in Webster Groves, and teaches a seminary class on this topic.
These sessions are designed to illustrate the variety of biblical texts that call us to attend to the current ecological crisis. To be sure, the Bible offers no easy answers; but as one prominent scholar puts it, what the Bible can offer are “vision and principle” from the past that may equip us to think and act differently (Ellen F. Davis, Scripture, Culture, and Agriculture: An Agrarian Reading of the Bible, p. 4). We’ll engage texts from The Torah, the Prophets, the Psalms and other Writings, and the New Testament.
Sessions will be held on Zoom on Wednesdays, February 3, 10, 17, and 24th, beginning at 7:30 pm following the weekly prayer service. While you can join in any or all sessions, it is helpful to know in advance how many will attend, so please contact Pastor Sarah if interested to register your interest and receive the Zoom link.
