“Worth and Dignity”
Sunday, July 30, 10:50 am
Ever since the 1860’s, when led by our Minister, Thomas Starr King, this congregation has been notable for its commitment to Social Justice. We give scholarships to first generation students, we help feed people in need. We provide free after-school care for local children. We shelter those, who have none, during the winter months. We support ministries in the community, and much else. Today our firmest belief in the inherent worth and dignity of every person, is being assaulted by the forces of Capitalism, the increasing wealth of the rich, the ethos of materialism, and the coercive power wielded by the media. All this contributes to the widening gap between people who are wealthy and those who struggle to survive. How can we be true to our beliefs? This morning we will explore ways in which we can become more aware of the ecological, economic, and power dynamics which benefit the few, and keep us separate. Believing that study and reflection in community, can heal us, if we dare to face the truth.
Sister Sheila Flynn, Guest Preacher; Rev. Margot Campbell Gross, Minister Emerita; Elliott Etzkorn, pianist; Bill Ganz, pianist; Ben Rudiak-Gould or Nancy Munn, songleader
Shulee Ong, Camera; Eric Shackelford, Camera; Alicia Cover, Order of Service; Carrie Steere-Salazar, Flowers; Linda Messner, Head Usher
