Painting: First Landing of Christopher Columbus by Frederick Kemmelmeyer
There is a constant battle in this country as to whether the holiday this upcoming Monday should be called Columbus Day or Indigenous’ People’s Day. I think this is indicative of the challenges we face as a country. Do we look at our history through the myth that props up the dominant culture? Or do we look at history from the perspective of the indigenous people who were here when Westerners arrived? I will explore how these questions shape our culture and our future.

Religious Education for Children and Youth at 10:30 am:
TO TELL THE TRUTH
After the Time for All Ages in the service, children and youth join their teachers for Fun Activities.
Lower Elementary (K-2nd grade)
The Children will explore the concept of what is true or not by using our sense and our reasoning. They will hear the story of the Emperor's New Clothes and then have a fun activity.
Tweens (3rd-6th grade)
The tweens will explore the concept of telling the truth and the consequences when we don't tell the truth or say something when we know something isn't true. There will be a fun activity to support these concepts.
Teens (7th- 10th grade)
The teens will share how they have experienced when someone is not truthful and play 2 lies and a truth game.
NURSERY CARE IS PROVIDED FOR INFANTS TO 5 Years. For more info, contact Catherine Bonner at [email protected]

Drop-In Chalice Group at 12:15 pm in the library
Come experience a deeper bond. Open to All. Drop-In when you can. No long term commitment. Chalice Groups are a small group of people who gather to share their thoughts on a chosen topic that touch their spiritual core. A Chalice Group is not a discussion group but a place to bond with others on a deeper level through intentional listening. Intentional listening is the practice of listening not to respond, judge or “fix” but to give space for others to share in a safe, confidential and supportive setting.
