Yes, yarn crafting again! Join Rev. Ian as we think about the ways that the long, slow process of creating large pieces of fabric to decorate our homes and keep us warm and cozy can point to possibilities for resilience and persistence in a changing world.

This week, we welcome the Rev. Frank Dunn. He and his husband, Joseph Casazza, are neighbors, living in Cathedral City. Rev. Dunn will focus on a few of the many lessons he has learned over his half-century career as an Episcopal priest, and from his involvement in all aspects of congregational life. Says Rev. Dunn: “I couldn’t possibly unpack more than a slice or two of what I’ve learned, but there’s a handful of things I’ve learned that might be useful to others in assessing what they have gleaned from the practice of Christianity. No one enters our lives without having something to teach us.

Drawing from Heritage and Tradition is a beautifully vast invitation for this August. Each of us can go deep and far with that prompt. Currently, I am occupied by our national news. I hope to draw forth some useful insights as we live these times. I look forward to being in your pulpit and sharing the morning with you.

Crafting deeper and richer friendships and kinship is a vital tool in combatting the growing separation and erosion of social norms in our communities. Perfectionism creeps into our lives in so many ways. And time brings change to all things. How can we build relationships that are flexible, resilient, and enriching in the face of the forces of hatred and disconnection?
