September 6 – A Covenant of Solidarity – Steve Kennedy
How do we honor Labor Day in times of oligarchy and authoritarianism? Behind the familiar three-day weekend is a history of communities organizing for dignity, security, and a voice in their working lives, often in the face of violence and repression from employers and governments. By formalizing and mythologizing the networks of mutual care and aid that sustained workers through immense struggle, what have we gained, and what have we lost? This service will explore the power of solidarity, and what labor history can teach us about confronting authoritarianism, institutional violence, and inequality today. At a time when so many forces seek to isolate us from one another, we will consider how communities can build the relationships, courage, and collective power that we need to stand together.
September 13 – Somos el Barco / We are the Boat – Revs. Tony Lorenzen and Sierra-Marie Gerfao
Revs. Tony and Sierra-Marie lead a multigenerational celebration of the annual Water Ceremony, reminding us we are all in this together and work of justice is for all ages.
Also on September 13th is our annual Fall Family Fun Fair. We will have a bounce house, games, and other activities for the kids. There will also be information for adults about this year’s programs for kids, teens, and families. If it rains, we will set up some activities in the Fellowship Hall. Potluck foods for our ingathering potluck, which is simultaneous, will be available in the upstairs of the fellowship hall.
