This Easter Celebration

4/8/2020

From Cindy Kirchner's Facebook... sung to the tune of "The Church's One Foundation"

From Kathleen Capshaw: Growing up in the Moravian church... my favorite Sunday of the church year was always Palm Sunday because the congregation sang this hymn along with the choir... just as it is shared here in the video. Everyone can learn the words and little children can belt it out with joy. Blessed is He that comes!

Sense of Place on March 29, 2020

From Camilyn Leone: Thank you for those members and founders of EEC of Greenwood who came before me for creating a beautiful place. They built a church that humbly sits atop a hill under a canopy of old oak trees. The steeple reaches into the sky, but it is beneath the branches that lift my eyes in wonder of our God. This reminds me that all human endeavors should seek to honor God’s creation. How blessed we are to have this place to come together as Christians sheltered by God’s love.

Lamentation Practice For A Time of Crisis

3/22/2020

From BB Vaughn: I love information from Richard Rohr, and I would like to share a practice: Lamentation for a Time of Crisis. From this practice I am learning how necessary lamenting is and how freeing it can be. Today on a conference call, several of us talked through this pattern, and I hope to share with others!

Lost In Wonder

3/22/2020

From Linda Aargard: I am really enjoying the book “Lost in Wonder” by Esther De Waal. The thing is perfect and the words beautiful. It is a good book to read for Lent, it is a perfect book to read while staying at home, but getting outside. Hope you also like it.
