NOTE: *Two services return! 9:15 Nouurish and 11am traditional* Join us for this annual ritual welcoming the start of the new church year! Bring water from your home, your haunts, or your travels to pour into our common bowl. (We will have additional pitchers so everyone can participate)! Water is powerful, and has the potential to nourish or erode. How can we remain flexible in the flow of change, and let water remind us that together we have everything we need?

Sometimes all it takes is one person speaking up and saying, "that's enough!" for something new and revolutionary to happen. 8:28 Welcome and Announcements 11:48 Opening Hymn 15:04 Land Acknowledgement and Centering Words 21:00 Bring in the light and Chalice Lighting 26:57 Time For All Ages 32:22 Offertory 38:27 Pastoral Meditation 41:23 Choir Anthem 47:15 Reading 49:00 Meditative Hymn 52:30 Sermon 1:12:26 Closing hymn 1:16:19 Benediction and Chalice Extinguishing 1:17:54 Choral Benediction

Together we will ponder the words of Douglas Steere, a quaker teacher who pondered the connection between our identity and our relationships.

"Some stories comfort us. Others challenge us. Still others carry both wisdom and wounds. A single story can bring hope to one person and anguish to another. In this service, Luke Rouker reflects on curiosity, testimony, and why human communities continue to preserve even the most complicated stories as a way of searching for meaning together." 6:10 Welcome and Announcements 8:12 Opening Hymn 10:18 Land Acknowledgement and Centering Words 15:12 Bring in the light and Chalice Lighting 17:24 Time For All Ages 22:49 Offertory 26:56 Pastoral Meditation 30:35 Choir Anthem 33:00 Reading 35:29 Meditative Hymn 37:37 Sermon 57:36 Closing hymn 59:43 Benediction and Chalice Extinguishing 1:01:25 Choral Benediction
