Traveling Companions,
We have taken a Lenten journey through the Dark Wood, examining the Gifts of Uncertainty, Emptiness, Being Thunderstruck, Getting Lost, Temptation, Disappearing, and Misfits. Tonight, Maundy Thursday starts the Easter Triduum, the three days of special prayer and devotion including Good Friday and Holy Saturday – the Easter Vigil. We are going deeper into the Dark Wood with our sibling congregations Congregational Church of San Mateo, Congregational Church of the Peninsula, and College Heights UCC so that we might emerge into the Easter Resurrection and Transformation of our fullest selves, having gained insights and deepened our relationship with God. I hope you’ll join one or all three services, either in person or via the worship links included.
Then what do we do?
We will sing “alleluias” and celebrate God who makes all things new on 1130 Balclutha, Zoom, or Livestream at 10 am on Sunday. Our friend and guest vocalist Carly Ozard will be back to share her gift of light and life through music. We will go out into the community sharing the Good News and inviting other travelers to join the caravan. I look forward to seeing your sunshiny faces.
Love,
Rev. Michael
