2000-year-old mail fraud, Rev. Erin Reed Cooper preaching:
The Apostle Paul is a complicated character. He was a church planter, consultant, prisoner, tent-maker, and ex-Christian persecutor. Seven of the new testament books are actually letters from Paul to various churches and individuals. Another seven books are mimicking his style and tone. But who was Paul and why are his ideas about Jesus so popular? Who do I need to write a letter to in order to get myself published in the Bible? This Sunday, we will join Rev. Erin Reed Cooper to take a look at the fourth chapter of Paul’s letter to the church in Galatia, and see if we can find out how this letter became a part of the Best Story Ever.
Join us on Facebook at this link at 10:00 a.m. as we gather together virtually as a worshiping community. We will view the pre-recorded video together, comment, “sign” the welcome register and chat with each other, even during the sermon.
Taizé Tuesdays at NDPC
Join us Tuesday evenings at 7:30 p.m. during the month of August for a contemplative service of music, scripture, prayer, and silence. Meditative songs with few words sung over and over again reinforce the meditative quality of the prayer. A brief word of scripture, prayers for our world and our people, and an extended period of silence. Watch on Facebook Live or Vimeo from our website. The service will be available all week long on the NDPC website for you to watch and participate at your leisure. You can find this week’s video here:
Fellowship Time
Want to connect with other members? We have a tradition of enjoying lemonade outside after worship in the summers. We can’t gather in person yet but we can gather virtually to catch up, break the ice if you are new, and stay cool together through summer fellowship.
Join our host for a virtual “lemonade time” from 11:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. after our Sunday service watch party. The host will convene us with a warm greeting and ice breaker question. If there are a bunch of us, the host will even open up Zoom rooms for smaller groups and rotate us around to mingle and make the most of this super fantastic social set-up. Join us for our Lemonade and Zoom hour. Details are in the Communicator and the Sunday morning email.
