| Alcohol Enforcement Resumes This Weekend |
Student renters, landlords could face prosecution for illegal parties
Armed with a year-old ordinance, Boston police say they may begin arresting the landlords and student tenants of apartments with habitual violations of alcohol laws. The so-called problem property ordinance targets sites that have had four documented complaints for underage drinking, loud parties, disorderly homes, and the like, says Sgt. Michael O'Hara of the Boston Police. "Students and others leasing apartments are legally responsible for what occurs on the premises that they are in control of," he says. If cops receive yet another complaint about a designated problem property, the recommendation "is to arrest the students controlling the property on which the offense occurs." Read more...

STH Worship Series: Paths of Discipleship
In community and as individuals, we strive to lead lives of faithful discipleship. But, how is the concept of following God incorporated into the business of our daily lives? How do our choices and actions help or hurt us as we work toward this goal? Drawing upon the gospel of Mark and other lectionary texts, this worship series will explore the journey that we all take as we live as disciples, encountering God as we experience call, respond in faith, and grow into servant leaders. By walking the "Paths of Discipleship" together, we will gain insight on how, through our thoughts and actions, we can respond to and be transformed by the love of God. Back to Top^ |

An Evening with Brian McLaren
Come hear Brian McLaren discuss his new book. Simple yet profound, this groundbreaking book shows readers how to reclaim this strong-benevolent faith in a way that fosters new inter-religious relationships, without religious rivalry. Blending history, narrative, and brilliant insight, McLaren challenges Christians to stop creating barriers in the name of God - and in doing so, invites Christians to become more Christ-like. Join the generative friendship that is developing among a growing number of people nationally and in the Boston-metro area who are interested in creating spaces and opportunities for conversations about creativity, compassion, and community.
Following Brian's presentation, a space will be available to start or continue these conversations which will include chairs, tables, refreshments, and an opportunity to meet Brian. For more information you may contact Xochitl Alvizo, [email protected], and detailed event info can be found here and here.
