This summer, we are going to try something new! Join us for a short all ages service talking about the power of music. Then, join a workshop for 20-25 minutes before coming back together for coffee hour. 
Most Sunday's this summer, children's classes are happening in the nursery and outside. We start right at the beginning of worship, rather than going to worship first. Meet in front of the Sanctuary for older kids. Younger kids can be dropped directly in the new nursery in the Administration Building. Unless previous arrangements have been made, children and youth are expected to either go to a Sunday program or remain with their parents in the service.

How do we go beyond welcome to build compassionate, authentic, and equitable communities? What is our understanding of growth, diversity, and inclusion? How do we live into the value of pluralism? We can begin by sharing our lived experiences, our joys and sorrows, and working together to examine structures and behaviors that create systemic barriers to building the Beloved Community.

For many years, East Shore has been a member of a collective of several churches and community organizations that take turns hosting PorchLight guests for a month. We will be hosting in October on our campus. We will also continue to provide year-round support and invite our congregation to donate food, make meals, and encourage our PorchLight friends to participate in congregational events. Join our PorchLight Ministry Team as we lift up our community partnership and offer our Share-the-Plate donations to support the vital work of our PorchLight partners.

Resistance can take many shapes. Now more than ever, we need to build strong mutual aid networks, to pool our resources, and live into our values by centering love. Mutual aid relies on solidarity and shared power, allowing communities to protect and sustain vulnerable groups when their human rights are under attack. It also relies on stitching together our stories to counter fear and isolation.
