Service for Sunday, February 6th, 2022 at 10am:  “Unjudge Someone”

In cities throughout the world, individuals are “checking out” real live people in a program called “Human Libraries.” The goal is to encourage us to engage with others in one-on-one conversations to break down stereotypes and the judgement that comes with focusing on the “cover” and not the “book.” What have participants gleaned from their Human Library encounters and what can we learn about why we judge others, sometimes just on the basis of how they look or our embedded scripts? This exploration also dovetails well with the experiences of Professor Cathy Small, the author of “The Man in The Dog Park,” who will share her relationship with Ross, the homeless man at the heart of her story, during our service.  Rev. Robin Landerman Zucker, preaching with Worship Associate Pia Driessen-Knittle, and recorded musical selections.
