What Matters Most—Online Worship through Zoom

Rev. Kristen Kuriga

The pandemic may help us see in new ways what matters most to us. What do I miss? What can I do without? What is central to my well-being? In this service we will explore what matters most in our lives, as well as in the life of the church. During the service we will share the new proposed mission statement created by the Board, and after service you will have an opportunity to share your feedback.

May: What Does it Mean to be a People of Thresholds?
In the month of May we are exploring what it means to be a people of thresholds. Thresholds, those liminal, in-between places, that can be both transformational and uncomfortable. Thresholds can be physical, like doorways and entrances. They can also be symbolic: rituals like graduations, weddings, memorials, and child dedications. The crossing of these thresholds are imbued with meaning. They mark a change or transformation in us and around us. What do we learn from being in-between? In the places where the sacred and the ordinary meet, where the known and the unknown meet, and where life and death meet. Soul matters describes being a people of thresholds as the practice of courageously stepping into the unknown and the new.
