Fourth Sunday after Epiphany
“My Soul Waits in Silence”
This Sunday we pay attention to silence.
For many of us, there is too much silence right now,
as we spend less time with others
or even in the proximity of those we don’t know.
For some of us, there is far too little silence right now,
as homes are not big enough,
and there is too little time for solitude.
We invite you to offer your soul silence today,
as a place for longing, reflection, hope, and renewal.
Our service includes the solo “In Christ Alone” and the hymn “Christ Be with Me” to a beautiful Irish tune. We will sing: “Christ in quiet, Christ in danger, Christ in hearts of all that love me.”
On YouTube, this will be a short service (15 minutes), and you are invited to create space for your own silence as the final part of your personal worship time.
On Zoom, we will take time to light candles for our prayers, and hear Emily’s reflection on the importance of listening for the prophets.
Either way, join Zoom at 11:15am for a time of conversation.
For Stories and Crafts this week we will be making Kindness Notes. This could be something we all might want to try! You can watch on Zoom at 9:55am, or any time on YouTube.
Next Sunday (Feb 7)
Our first Sunday of Black History Month will be a musical celebration, and we invite you to share the service with friends and family. It will be identical on Zoom and YouTube – and the music sounds great on YouTube!
