This weekend, we will worship together again in the sanctuary after a summer of wonderful services in our chapel. Our preacher will be the Rev. Taylor Roth speaking on the topic, "New Life." Taylor is a member of our church and a retired minister who served for many years as pastor of the Allin Church in Dedham. His message is always full of faith, humor, and wisdom.

Our worship assistant this Sunday will be the Rev. Jamie Green, our new youth minister. Jamie comes to us with degrees from Northwestern University and Harvard Divinity School. She was the Director of Pastoral Ministries at the Christian Union Church in West Groton for two years and has a strong call to youth ministry. She has been involved with the youth ministry programs in every church where she has served, so we are enthusiastic about her arrival here. I am looking forward to introducing her to you this weekend.

Church member Cici Hunt will lead our worship music. We will have childcare for all ages in our summer childcare room on the lower level, or children are always welcome to attend worship with their families - activity/coloring pages are always available.

If you are home this weekend and seeking some spiritual nurture, please join us. If you are already dizzy with the pace of your life as September starts, join us for an hour of peace. If your plans for the weekend have changed because of Hurricane Earl - consider it a call from God to come to church.
