Pam Everhart prepared the bulletin for Sunday's worship service. Much of the liturgy she put in the service she adopted from Dr. Tinker's writings. Here are some of the thoughts we will experience in the sermon tomorrow;
"If Jesus is important, then Jesus must first of all be important in how the Christian lives in relation to others. We must begin to dream together, Indian and non-Indian, White and color. We will dream a new vision of the world."
"Religious communities in the United States, not the institutional structures that organize them, but the communities themselves, are the critical mass necessary for generating a movement toward lasting change. That is where our movement for transformation must begin; with you and me."
George Tinker (Tink) is a professor of institutional and personal transformation. He has a reputation for "telling it like it is" and "putting it on the line" so that leaders and students are forced to think about ultimate objectives; human purposes; and faith leading to action.
Tink will preach in all of our services tomorrow. We will have a concert by Native American flutist Vince Red House and there will be Native American crafts and food items.
This is an important day for the church and a celebration of our studies and our investment in the Pine Ridge Reservation project some of the members attended this past year.
We are grateful to the Outreach Committee for their wonderful work and for putting this together for us.
