Orders of Service for April 2008

Worship services are held at 10:45am on Sundays.  Unless otherwise noted, all services are led by our minister, the Rev. Dr. Marni Harmony.  All are welcome!  The Worship Service topics for April are as follows:

Sunday, April 6  Guilty!

In the last of my series on historical disagreements among us, I’ll look at the question, “Is conscience enough to steer us toward the good, or do we human beings need a threat of punishment to avoid choosing, well, a “lesser” good?”

Sacred Text: Bill Redfoot

Sunday, April 13  Dancing with Francis

My song for this month is “Brother Sun, Sister Moon,” written by Donovan for the movie with the same title about St. Francis of Assisi.  I’ll share some thoughts about St. Francis and his tender caretaking of earth.

Share-the-Plate:  Planned Parenthood of Greater Orlando        

Sunday, April 20  Untying the Knots of Narcissism and Negativity

I have been studying a process called Appreciative Inquiry.  For me, it’s more than a process; it involves a culture change.  I look forward to sharing some of my learnings with you.

Sacred Sharing:     Patty Reynolds

Sunday, April 27  Words for our World

Poetry, like all art, is a form of worship. In celebration of National Poetry month and Earth Day, our annual poetry service will feature poems for our planet, revering mother nature, and honoring the interdependent web of life. Feel free to send your poem recommendations to Nicki Drumb.
