SUMMARY:Lenten Book Study – “Learning to Walk in the Dark”
DESCRIPTION:Join me on five Thursday evenings in Lent\, starting on February 18 at 7 pm\, for a Zoom gathering to discuss a 2014 book by one of my favorite preachers and thinkers\, Barbara Brown Taylor. Learning to Walk in the Dark is available as an e-book for $12. Taylor wrote it to help us maintain a healthy spiritual life in those times when we don’t have all the answers. She argues that we need to move away from “solar spirituality” and ease our way into appreciating “lunar spirituality” since\, like the moon\, our experience of the light waxes and wanes. \nTo gain a sense of Taylor as a writer\, I recommend an article of hers published by The Christian Century last July – “Finding God outside the church walls.” \nIf you are interested in participating or would like more information\, please drop me a line – iankellogg@hotmail.com

SUMMARY:Regional Worship Service on June 14
DESCRIPTION:We are not alone\, we live in God’s world! \nThese words are a gift and a challenge to us. As we celebrate that we are surrounded by the love of our Creator and that it is through our relationships and community that God’s love is manifested\, we are also invited to see how we too can reveal God’s love. This Sunday\, our congregation\, Grace United Church in Edmonton\, is using the magic of technology to provide a regional worship service. Folks from northern Alberta and the northeast tip of BC\, comprising our Northern Spirit Region\, share their leadership to explore how in these strange and challenging times God is calling us to be seeds of hope. May this coming together of community remind us that surely God in this place in ways we didn’t expect. Help us notice!\nBlessings\, Anna and Chelsea \nWorship Service: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1HCiCWJzuPGZBdxPLHDQw1MU–Ju4UVNn/view?usp=sharing \nWorship Bulletin: https://northernspiritrc.ca/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Regional-Worship-Bulletin.pdf \n
