The United Church of Granville

The United Church of Granville A non-judgmental, peace & justice-seeking community of faith affiliated with the UCC & ABC/USA

Members of our historic congregation, known for many years as the First Baptist Church, have been abolitionists and activists; soldiers, veterans and conscientious objectors; missionaries, pastors and seminarians; teachers, farmers, doctors, lawyers and artists--in short, a mix of unique individuals who share a common journey to live out the Gospel. Our three most recent outreach initiatives run t

he gamut: Lunches on the Square, no-strings attached free brown-bag lunches distributed to 200 or so hungry folks on the 4th Sunday of each month; Rancho Ebenezer Mission Brigade, a team volunteering to upgrade facilities and deepen relationships at a teaching farm in Nicaragua; and connecting with and supporting the Homeless Outreach group in Newark.

We are grateful to Revs. Mary and Steve Hammond, who led worship today They created a meaningful “blessing of the soil” ritual and led us as we pondered God through nature. Steve also happens to be the pastor who married Jeff and Julie Reiswig 44 years ago when they were students at Oberlin College .

Dear Friends:

As a continuation of our celebration of Earth Day, this Sunday Mary Hammond, assisted by Steve Hammond, will lead an Earth Day Service that includes a Blessing of the Soil. Gardeners, bring a small container (ex. baggie or yogurt container) of soil from your yard or garden plot. During the service you will be invited to place your soil in a communal bowl which will be stirred and blessed after which you will be able to take a similar amount of blessed soil back to you garden to scatter.

Did you know Jesus washed the disciples’ feet after their last dinner together? Come be blessed tonight as we ponder Jesus’ last night with his friends in a modern symbolic way.
