First Church of Christ in Saybrook (Congregational)
United Church of Christ
Join us Sunday at 10am for worship led by guest preacher Rev, Jeff Birch. This Sunday's theme is: "Some Peace"
“Repent! The Kingdom of God draws near!” With those words, John the Baptist begins a campaign intended to rally converts to his political movement…a movement with no less ambition than the overthrow of Roman Rule in Judea.
Is that what really happened? Is that what we’re supposed to talk about on the Sunday ofAdvent Peace – political revolution? Some scholars think so and, intended or not, that is in fact what ultimately happened. There’s a lot of cognitive dissonance in this week’s scripture passage, and we’ll confront it this Sunday.
We’ll also take the time to officially commission our Pastoral Search Committee as they begin their important work. All of that, and Holy Communion, too.
Please join us, in person or on Facebook Live.
