Sunday Worship: The Day You Begin — The Backpack Blessing

Rev. Diana Smith, preaching
Judith Martin-Straw, Worship Associate

Beginning something new is often both wonderful and scary – whether you’re beginning in a new school, classroom, job, home, relationship, or something else. What are the gifts of beginning? How can we help make good beginnings for ourselves and others? Join Rev. Diana Smith and RE Lead Maddie Van Beek to explore “The Day You Begin” by Jacqueline Woodson and to bless backpacks and school/work bags. Members of all ages are invited to bring their backpacks, saddle bags, knitting bags, lunch bags – whatever kind of bag you carry on your daily adventures! Join us in our historic Sanctuary at 18th and Arizona, online or in-person.
