Just Bakery will be at Plymouth this Sunday (2/22). Join us in worship at 9:30 am, then after the service purchase some great baked goods to take home (and join us for our Social Hour, where JB goodies will be shared). A great way to support this important community organization.

We have decided to move our Sunday worship service for 11/30 to Zoom only due to the amount and timing of the snow in our area, its impact on the neighborhood streets by Plymouth, and for the safety of our members. We will have a shortened service starting at 9:30 am as we usher in the Advent season, as well as a time to chat afterwards. You can access our Zoom service at https://us02web.zoom.us/j/318847825?pwd=anQvUXIrRG9GbEp2Z0hvMmlabDVUUT09
(for members, the link is also in the newsletter). Please stay safe if you have to travel or clear snow!

Zoom is the leader in modern enterprise cloud communications.

A great way to show support for our immigrant, poor, LGBTQ+, and all our neighbors at risk in these times.

🧡 As people of faith, we know that .

That's why we’re collecting stories that show how immigration policies impact our families, congregations, and neighborhoods — stories of welcome, joy, and belonging, or of hardship, injustice, and struggle.

These stories will be shared later this month with members of Congress as UCC Conference Ministers travel to D.C. to advocate for fair, compassionate, and just immigration policies.

You are beloved! You are valued! You are loved!

"In a time when diversity is misunderstood, preachers can shine God’s light of love upon all people who might be feeling afraid of being targeted, stigmatized, and punished because of their neurodivergence."

"There is nothing broken, sinful, or cursed about being neurodivergent. The church can be a sacred community for authentic belonging, a place where the mask of 'normal' can be removed, and we can fully receive God’s love without exception."

-Rev. Dr. Sarah Griffith Lund
Minister for Disabilities & Mental Health Justice, UCC

A nice story about the work and ministry of Monastery in Madison!

The women of Holy Wisdom Monastery have restored 170 acres of native prairie and oak savanna. “Humans need creation to find ourselves,” one said.
