Sermon by Shawn Newton
We live in complicated times, and there is much that weighs on our hearts these days. Yet, as the good green earth spins on, we move through the seasons of the year and the cycles of life. In this turning time of year, we shift to harvest that which has been planted, that which has borne fruit, both literal and otherwise. And we pause to give thanks, for all that is our life. My sermon on Sunday will focus on how we “say grace” over all of it. And Danny Fong will offer his rendition of “What a Wonderful World.”
As well, we will celebrate our annual Harvest Communion ritual. We invite you to come to our online service with a small portion of something to eat with intention. Bread, fruit, chocolate…whatever suits your taste! Also, bring a glass of water or other beverage. We’ll savour the moment together around our virtual table of gratitude.
Wishing you all a meaningful and happy Thanksgiving.
In faith and love,
Shawn
