“Some Assembly Required: On Becoming A Self”

All are welcome. Masks and Proof of Vaccination Required.

It’s New Year’s Resolution time! Again? (sigh) Yet, in the wake of the pandemic, what might we “resolve” when our confidence in the lives we’ve planned has been so irrevocably impacted? Have we become more tender towards ourselves, more flexible with others? “Now, I become myself,” writes the poet May Sarton, “it’s taken time, many years and places. I have been dissolved and shaken, worn other people’s faces.” This morning, we’ll explore what it might mean to view our imperfections and “areas of improvement” with compassion, honesty, and humor, as we embrace the ever-evolving process of becoming fully an authentic “Self.” Rev. Robin Landerman Zucker, preaching, with Worship Associate Cheryl Austin and jazz music from Austin Shaw.

 

Come to the Post-Service Gatherings at 11 am to connect, share joys and sorrows, and reflect on the service. These will be held in person.
