Poetry for Bad Times and Good
In these difficult times, many of us have grim thoughts about the future. Great poets have had similar fears and have said so eloquently. Yet they survived their bad times, and we can hope to survive ours.
In the Book of Proverbs, it is written that “He who walks with the wise will become wise, but the companion of fools will be destroyed.” In honor of Mother’s Day, we will celebrate Sophia, the feminine figure associated with wisdom and knowledge.
Sophia, in Greek, means wisdom. Please join us for our service on Sunday May 11th as Rev. Terry Cummings reflects on the distinction between wisdom (Sophia) and folly (Insipientia) during a time of uncertainty. And, of course, we will also celebrate mothers of all kinds.
The Fellowship's service on April 27 offers a unique celebration of Spring and nature. Instead of the usual flower communion, we'll get to hear three reflections on nature as a "free" therapist. If you can, please bring a small plant to share and then take another one home with you to plant and to remind you of the fellowship throughout he growing season.
