​Fear and Love, the two great matters in life

Throughout the scriptures, both the Hebrew Scriptures and the New Testament Scriptures that follow, we are admonished not to be afraid. And the reason for this is because God wants us to live full, rich lives broken open so that others may be served. And this cannot happen when fear is present. Fear obstructs all original thought, and keeps new possibilities at bay. 
Fear is a sign that there is an absence of love. Because love cancels out fear. 
Love and fear are the only matters worth concerning ourselves with, all other matters follow from our choice - shall we be afraid? Or shall we love?
Choose Love. 
​It's more fun. 
Last Sunday I read from a call to worship and prayed a prayer from two of the acknowledged prophets of our time - one Catholic, Joan Chittister, and one Protestant, Walter Brueggemann. Both have given much thought to our current situation in the world, and offered their prophetic voice up to the imagination. Below, is a live teaching from Sister Chittister and a wonderful pod cast from the On Being Project, where Krista Tippett interviews Brugmmemann. They offer us much to think about.

Father's Day and Service of Baptism

​Pentecost Sunday and Communion Service

As a denomination, The United Church of Canada believes that the Holy Spirit continues to move in the world. As we say in the New Creed, God “works in us, and others, by the Spirit.” Where we recognize movements in the world that bring healing, hope, life, and abundant life for all creation, there’s a pretty good chance that we’ve met the movement of the Holy Spirit.

Gathered around a hundred and sixteen year old bell, we learned something about ourselves.
And then we ate cake.
​Because that's how we roll. 

June 2nd, 2019 Sunday Service
This Sunday is the 148th Anniversary of Trinity United Church.
Michael and Guy have been busy putting the finishing touches on our new outdoor signs so we can do a little service of dedication with our bell in its new place this Sunday at Trinity for their 148th Anniversary Service. And stay to enjoy some home made cake served up in our new hospitality room. Because we knew you were coming and we BAKED A CAKE! (or six or seven!)
