“Making Room:  Lots of Change in our Lives and
Little Change in Our Pockets”
Diane Wright, officiating

There is a Buddhist saying: "To know, and not to do, is not really yet
to know...." Four weeks into our new year's resolutions, we'll examine
the ways in which we handle change in our lives, and consider how
spirituality and emotion play roles in the adjustments we make.  Order of Service

“LovingKindness”  Rev. Helen Carroll

Even as confident, competent, self-reliant human beings, we often crave love and find ourselves lonely.There is pain where we yearn for joy.

Our response to the isolation of the modern world is to connect with a level of love that is a real connection to all beings. In Buddhism it’s called Lovingkindness.

“From the Beatles to the Bible, Is Love Really All We Need?”
Amy Shaw, Ministerial Intern

We hear the word over and over again, everywhere from fleeting pop culture references to revered religious teachings.

Our Mission: St. John’s is committed to creating a safe and caring community, working for peace and social justice, and celebrating beliefs that respect freedom of thought.
