We have this treasure in clay jars, we are told. But clay jars are fragile and sometimes get broken when least expected—and what do we do then? Part of the answer comes today in this special message from Rev. Amy Grogan who tells a personal story of tragedy and triumph stirred together, and in their midst the sermon that wouldn’t come. Instead Rev. Grogan offers a meditation of how God’s light can even shine through the cracks of our brokenness, looking at Paul’s message to the Corinthians 4:5-12. We hope you will join us in worshipping this week.

Worship is just over 25 minutes, with song, scripture, prayer, and a short message. As we do each week, our closing moments together include a time of communion (breaking of the bread). We invite you to participate if you would like with some type of actual bread and drink you supply, or these elements held in your mind. You may also meditate as we tell of Jesus' invitation to "do this in remembrance of me." All are welcome at our table.
