September 18th: Water Communion

On September 18th, we will hold our annual Water Communion Service — which is a community-building and healing experience for us all. Please bring water to the service, whether it is water from a grand adventure, from your kitchen sink, or points between.

During the service Rev. Ron will invite you, by sections, to queue up before the chancel.

When it is your turn, you will approach the glass basin on the altar. There, the Sunday Service Associate will offer you a microphone so that you may each share with us, in a couple of words, the character of the experience around getting the water -- even if you just got the water that morning. You are encouraged to think of that experience as a blessing to this community, whether it was joyous or painful. All of your experience is welcome. For instance, you might say, "This represents new beginnings," or "This is the water of loss," or "Peace and relaxation." Then you can return to your seat.

Your characters will mingle. All our characters will combine.

Ushers will be available to assist those who need help going up or down the chancel stairs. We will also accommodate anyone who wishes to participate but cannot make it onto the chancel.

After this service, you’re invited to join us for our annual Corn Roast! Details.
