› Worship for Sunday May 30, Online Only!
via church email on Sunday and SPC’s Home & Recent Online Worship Services webpages
n Sunday, May 30, we invite you to join us for worship online, via SPC’s YouTube channel. We have learned that the weekend of May 29 and 30 are set as celebration and move-out days for Swarthmore College students. Given the location of our outdoor worship service, near to student housing, and in a desire to be good neighbors, we have determined to cancel the in-person outdoor service for Sunday, May 30. Aiding this decision-making is the desire for all in our congregation to experience the fullness of the worship that day, Children’s Sabbath, when we will be led by our children through music, prayer, and readings. Jesus told his disciples that in order to enter the kingdom of God, we must be as children; and at SPC we celebrate that the Spirit gives all ages gifts in aiding the worship and praise of our Lord. We encourage you to make a special effort to attend, using the link that will be shared in the worship email, available after 6:00 am on Sunday Morning.
› Children’s Sabbath
Sunday, May 30 / Online Only
The wolf shall live with the lamb, the leopard shall lie down with the kid, the calf and the lion and the fatling together, and a little child shall lead them. (Isaiah 11:6)
he children’s worship leadership will play an essential role in this service of the Lord’s Day! You won’t want to miss it. Our children and the Christian Formation team have been working innovatively to nourish the seeds of our Children’s Cantata tradition so that they may emerge in a pandemic bloom. We will be hearing the voices of children, both as liturgists and as music-makers as the Holy Spirit blows through our worship together on this first Sunday after Pentecost. Join us on this day via YouTube, Facebook, or the SPC website.
