This Sunday’s service will be a shortened service (about 30 minutes long) and will be followed by a time for folks to pitch in and spruce up our building and grounds with cleaning and organizing tasks. At 11:30 we will begin the Community Meal and if there is still work to be done, you will be welcome to stay after the meal and continue with cleaning and organizing.

Every now and then it pays to examine what we have, what we have been doing, and where we are. Here are some questions about spring cleaning we may explore during the service and afterwards that day:

Do the things and activities in our lives still serve us as we are now?

Are there corners we haven’t looked at in a while that could be cleared out so something new can enter our lives?

Can we appreciate and find the things we love the most?

Can letting go of the visual reminders of the past (or past hopes) free up energy for new adventures?

Could cleaning and caring for our physical environment be a form of love in action, a way of caring for ourselves, our relationships, and our Beloved Community?
