Orchard Ridge United Church of Christ
Spiritually Alive, Joyfully Inclusive, Committed to Justice
You can see the reading used in Java and Jesus on March 7, by Frederick Buechner on the Lord’s Prayer from his book, Listening to Our Lives.
This led to a discussion of other versions. Now you can read these Alternative Versions of the Lord’s Prayers. If you find another one, feel free to email it to winton@orucc.org.

pause
This collection of images is created by photographer Cheryl Diermyer with reflections written by Rev. Winton Boyd. Each image invites each of us to pause and reflect on our connectedness with each other and with earth’s natural beauty. The hurried pace of 21st century daily life in much of the United States leaves us little time for reflection, or to pause and really see others. It is often in the quiet spaces of our lives, when we find deeper understanding of how we make our way in the world. This exhibit invites moments of stillness and offers an opportunity to connect us to humanity and with all creation.
Exhibit hours and locations are:
May 11 - July 1
Orchard Ridge United Church of Christ (ORUCC)

Departing from male-dominated ways of interpreting society and the church, feminist theologies embrace an alternative vision of community, one of equality and mutuality among sexes, races, classes, all peoples, and between human beings and the earth.
