Right Words? Wrong Mouth

Speaker: Rev. Eileen Altman
Date: January 23,2022

​Pastor Eileen challenged us with the words of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. "True compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar; it comes to see that an edifice which produces beggars needs restructuring.” We are called to continually engage in the work of radical transformation of overhauling systemic racism, even if it makes us a bit uneasy. In the words of MLK, "The whole Jericho road must be transformed so that men and women will not be constantly beaten and robbed as they make their journey on life's highway."

We gather as a church, welcoming people of all abilities, backgrounds, ethnicities, and those who are LGBTQ+, to become more aware of the love of God in our lives and to make real that love in the world through worshiping, serving humanity, and seeking to follow in the ways of Jesus.
