Worship With Us - October 29

Beyond the Walls – Sacredness of Creation

For the fifth of our nine Enduring Principles Sundays as we explore the “Sacredness of Creation,” we receive ministry from the North America Climate Justice Team. The climate crisis has become an existential emergency for humanity which Paul Bethel will address in our message from Huntingdon, California. Andrew Fellows of Derby, England, will teach our Peace Lesson. Our invocation will be given by Dean Wight, and scripture will be read by Joan Thompson and Laurie Gordon. In Community of Christ we believe that God has called us all to be faithful stewards of the Earth, but human shortsightedness and greed have compromised the natural systems we all depend on. What can we do to promote peace on and for the Earth in the 21st century?
