All Kinds of Mothers and Not

Today’s Topic:

Mother’s Day is complicated. Joy and grief are woven fine depending on our life experiences, unfulfilled desires, expectations, and loss of mothering. Current restrictions on reproductive freedom can force people to become parents. How can our community hold the pluralism of all kinds of mothers, including the choice to not be a parent?

Join us this Sunday when we celebrate the bond between parents, their children and our community during our Child Dedication Ceremony.

Worship Team:

Rev. Dena McPhetres, Associate Minister
Alissa Rhode, Lead Music Director

Parking: Our church has no parking lot. Jewish Family Services lot: JFS welcomes us to use their parking lot on Sundays. It is located 3 blocks west of the church, on Van Buren near Knapp St. Kingshead lot: On Sundays we can also use the gated parking lot on the corner of Van Buren and Knapp Streets. After you park, get a token from an usher in order to exit the lot. We also rely on street parking in our neighborhood. Here is a map with details.
