The Teaching Body
“All our bodies are fundamentally good and lovable (Rachel Martin).” What do you feel when you read this statement? What wells up in your consciousness, in your body? Does your breath come a little easier? Does your jaw relax? This Sunday we explore the goodness of our bodies no matter what shape, size or color, and the ways in which our bodies might teach us a deeper kind of interconnectedness and health.
Please join us for worship at 9:30 or 11:15 a.m.

January Worship Theme: Our Beautiful Bodies
In one of the most beautiful biblical passages, the psalmist writes: “For it was you who formed my inward parts; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; that I know very well. (Ps 139: 13-14)” This month we recognize, accept and cherish that we have our being in a body, fearfully and wonderfully made. We grow. We age. We have gifts. We have limitations. We experience one another and ourselves in bodies that are beautiful and wondrous no matter their particular characteristics. This month we explore our being in a beautiful body.
