Reading for this service will include a passage from the Gospel of John, as well as poetry by Galway Kinnell and e.e. cummings. The sermon by Pastor Lucozzi is entitled “Grow in God, Grow in Love.” Music under the direction of Patty Meyer includes “Wake to the Spirit” by Patrick Michaels, “I Am the Vine” by John Michael Talbot, “Abide with Me” by William H. Monk; lyrics by Henry F. Lyte and “O God, In Your Love” music by Walter Chalmers Smith; lyrics by Carolyn Winfrey Gillette as well as a special communion music “Bread for the Journey” by Brett Hesla; with special guest musicians Keith Murphy vocals and guitar and Becky Tracy, violin. The children’s story for our service is One Love based on the song by Bob Marley and adapted by his youngest daughter Cedella Marley, illustrated by Vanessa Brantley-Newton.Prayers and concerns for the world and our time are also a regular part of our time together.
