The Monday Evening Pastor’s classes 

For the next three Mondays, you are invited to join the Pastor’s Class via zoom. We will study Richard Rohr’s book Falling Upward: A Spirituality for the Two Halves of Life.  I think this is both Rohr’s best work and his most accessible one. Some have called Rohr one of the greatest living theologians because he blends so well the contemplative and active streams of spirituality. Copies are available for purchase at Comma, a bookshop (4250 Upton Avenue S in Minneapolis). Classes meet using this link on Monday evenings from 7:00-8:00 pm via zoom.

Next Sunday, March 12th. 

We welcome Linda Madson and Abby Abby Magnus-Lawson as our Personal Reflectors. Linda and Abby are the O.W.L. (Our Whole Lives) teachers for 27 7th-9th graders. Also, The Judstones will be performing the Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds song “Jesus Met the Woman at the Well” to go along with the pastor’s sermon on the same story found in the gospel of John chapter 4. Furthermore, after worship, Jinx Norvell and Anna Lovat will answer your questions and offer a Q(ueer) & A session for how to speak about human sexuality. 

Request for Questions:

On March  12, Anna Lovat, and Jinx Norvell, will be teaching us more about LGBTQ+ topics following the service. Please plan to come and hear what our youth have to share! They’d love to know what you’d like to hear about. If you have specific questions or topics you’d like them to talk about, please send them to Cindy Clague at ctclague19@gmail.com, and she will pass them along. 

Pam Joern’s Book Launch: Sunday, March 26, 1:00 pm

Come and invite your neighbors and friends to the launch of Pam’s latest novel, Toby’s Last Resort. Introduction by Sheila O’Connor, music by Jimmi Langemo. Pam will read excerpts. Q & A, light refreshments. Books are available from Comma, a bookshop.
