SUMMARY:Clergy Conversations with Rev. Mary Kate Buchanan
DESCRIPTION:Hour-long Zoom interviews with people selected by our First Community clergy. \nIn this conversation\, Rev. Mary Kate Buchanan speaks with Jeff Chu\, writer\, reporter\, editor\, preacher and teacher. \n In his own words: \nI wear several different hats to cover my coarse Chinese hair\, which requires too much product to tame: \nWriter\, reporter\, editor. Co-curator and co-host\, with Sarah Bessey\, of Evolving Faith. Editor-at-large at Travel+Leisure. Occasional preacher. Teacher in residence at Crossponte Church. Ordained in the Reformed Church in America (RCA). Cook\, gardner\, and dog walker to Fozzie in Michigan\, where my husband and I moved two years ago. (First time living in the Midwest. Snow tires are a revelation!) \nBefore that\, I was a seminarian at Princeton Theological Seminary\, where I worked as a farmhand at PTS’s Farminary. More than anything else in my life\, that land taught me about the story of life\, death and new life that God has written into creation. \nRegister HERE to receive the Zoom link.

SUMMARY:Thursday @ Ten:  Spiritual Explorations
DESCRIPTION:Every Thursday \n10-11:30 am \non Zoom \nDuring Thursdays @ 10 we will be listening to and reflecting on The Diana Butler Bass Series “Embracing Spiritual Awakening.” Although the series is from 2013\, the topic is quite relevant to 2023 and beyond. Updated materials will be included as appropriate. After much reflection on possible study topics\, I landed on this one in order to bring us back to a faith centered topic.  After the Jon Meacham series immersed us in History and politics today it seemed timely to switch gears! I do hope you will find the time to log in and participate in this series…and continue the open dialogue and personal reflection that is so characteristic of the group! \nFacilitated by Connie Johnston. \nFor more information or to register\, please click HERE.

SUMMARY:Thursday @ Ten:  Spiritual Explorations
DESCRIPTION:Every Thursday \n10-11:30 am \non Zoom \nDuring Thursdays @ 10 we will be listening to and reflecting on The Diana Butler Bass Series “Embracing Spiritual Awakening.” Although the series is from 2013\, the topic is quite relevant to 2023 and beyond. Updated materials will be included as appropriate. After much reflection on possible study topics\, I landed on this one in order to bring us back to a faith centered topic.  After the Jon Meacham series immersed us in History and politics today it seemed timely to switch gears! I do hope you will find the time to log in and participate in this series…and continue the open dialogue and personal reflection that is so characteristic of the group! \nFacilitated by Connie Johnston. \nFor more information or to register\, please click HERE.
