What If It All Works Out?

We spend a remarkable amount of time imagining everything that could go wrong. We worry about the choices we make, the paths we take, and the futures we can't predict. But what if we gave just as much attention to everything that could go right? This month, as we explore the theme of Living the Questions, we'll consider how uncertainty can hold not only fear, but also hope, joy, and unexpected possibilities. Join Dani Williams as we explore what happens when we make room for a different question: What if it all works out?

During service, children will be invited to join us for our Children's Faith Exploration program, Growing Columbines. Our program (K-5th) engages the spirit, mind, and body through games, movement, and hands-on activities. Kids start in the sanctuary with the whole congregation before heading to their classes.

For our youngest friends (under age 5), Nursery care is available for the duration of the service.

This weekend, our Growing Columbines will learn how other cultures celebrate the Autumn season. In Hispanic culture they celebrate Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) by constructing a communal, joyful ofrenda (remembrance altar). Children are invited to bring a photo or drawing of an ancestor, a beloved family member who has passed, or a past pet to place on our altar. To celebrate this vibrant tradition, we will also be creating colorful sugar skulls (calaveras) and enjoying sweet, delicious conchas together!
