The scene is set
Flowers are arranged
Friends are guided to their seats
Beloved children of God
Singing
Reading
Prayer
Sharing from who we are
A blessing
A goodbye
This is the scene on the second Sunday of the month at Chicago Methodist Senior Services. During our time together change occurs. God is at work both in those from Berry and in those from CMSS as we worship together.
Metamorphosis is an interesting metaphor for our faith. Each of us goes through our own times of changing; our own times of emerging from our cocoons. Every one of us has a different experience of metamorphosis. A different way that God acts in us and through us in the world.
It is my hope that the opportunity to engage in a worship experience that is meaningful and generous allows each of us to form a connection with those around us, and with the ever-present God with us.
Peace,
Matthew
