The Promise of Acceptance and Spiritual Growth
The Rev. Jude Geiger

Body & Soul
The Rev. Jennifer Brower
Much of the time we spend together on Sunday mornings is focused upon cultivating our sensitivity to the Spirit of Life, growing in our awareness of its presence and witnessing to its work in our lives. In worship, we sing, preach and otherwise attempt to tune into the ineffable at the center of our being. This morning, we’ll bring our bodies into the mix. But don’t fret, gym clothes are not required and no one will be asked to offer a spontaneous liturgical dance. Come and join me for worship this morning. I’ll miss you if your body is not present!
