A remembrance of those who have made our lives better.
We begin the summer with a special service put on by the Music Committee. Instead of giving a sermon, we aim to show how music can influence us in so many different ways. It can reflect our sorrow or joy, it can inspire us to rally together, or help us show our love and mend our wounds. Please join us for a very uplifting service.
This is about a crisis of faith we have in our own questions, reflections, and voices. It is about our unwillingness to reconsider ancient small-scale answers to large-scale mysteries; our reluctance to discover the sacred for ourselves. The new window of science is there to look through. For the believer, it is the challenge of deciding what to continue to hold onto and what to let go. For the doubter, it is the challenge of going beyond what doesn’t believe to beliefs one can hold fast and live by.
Hogwarts Camp staff would love donations to create the imaginative atmosphere for the immersive experience! They are looking for strands of lights, Halloween decorations, fabric, felt, glass jars, pipe cleaners, costumes, or anything else that would create the magic of Hogwarts. Please leave in the labeled box by the library in the sanctuary.
