Come and learn gumboot dancing with Ellyn Barham in Fellowship Hall.Gumboots is an African step dance that found life in the mines of South Africa. Miners traveled from different parts of Africa to find work in the mines. Despite language barriers and harsh work conditions, Gumboots was used as a way for miners to communicate and uplift each other.

"Spirituality and Film, Part 1: The Daily Round"
The Rev. Doug Wadkins
In July, we will do a three part series for our Sunday worship services that looks at three themes of Here and Now importance. Each service will use film clips as sermon illustrations. This first service will give an introduction to a way of approaching film as a spiritual practice, and will explore how films can raise our awareness of the power of daily events and larger life cycles in shaping meaning.
|
Note: With all of the film series, while none of the clips are chosen to be shocking or overly intense, sometimes people experience film moments with powerful emotion. If this is a particularly sensitive or difficult time, please feel free to make decisions about whether this would be a good set of services for you to attend. If you have questions, check in with Rev. Wadkins. Generally speaking, Rev. Wadkins hopes to see you there!
