“Joshua fit the battle of Jericho and the walls came a-tumblin’ down!” I remember singing that in Sunday School more than 40 years ago as we learned about Joshua taking over from Moses, his great military victory, and his leadership of God’s people into the Promised Land. It was a story of courage and bravery and faith. No one told me it was also a story about genocide. And I’m quite sure that no one told me that it’s all made up–Joshua and the Israelites never even fought at Jericho, let alone caused the walls to come a-tumblin’ down. So what do we do with a story like this one that gets WORSE (not better) as we grow up and learn more about it? There’s still a message from God here about the ways we all get confused about who and where God is when we are scared for our safety. We read the story of Joshua this Sunday in our summer series “The Best. Story. Ever.” Rev. Lewicki, preaching
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.
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.
