"Be still and know that I am God"
- Psalm 46:10
Please plan to join us as we gather in meditative contemplation from 10:00 until 11:00 on Saturday in the Sanctuary.
On this Father’s Day and the 4th Sunday after Pentecost, we’ll continue in the gospel of Matthew as Jesus sends out his disciples, warning them about the difficulties ahead, but assuring them of the care of their heavenly Father. It’s a tough passage, so we’ll wrestle with it, holding to the assurance of God’s care for each of us.
Tim K. Murphy will lead us through this week's Hymns and Special Music selections from the ACC Ensemble. Larry Brookes will serve as Liturgist and Pastor Jen will lead worship and preach. Childcare will be available during the service for children ages 2 and up.

In celebration of Pride Month, and so much more, please join us to screen this award-winning and visually stunning life story that will knock your socks off!
As Amir George writes in the current Program Guide for Berkeley Art Museum (BAM) Pacific Film Archive:
“When she begins losing her sight, legendary film editor Vivien Hillgrove turns to the medium she knows best—film—to craft this intimate and unconventional memoir. Reflecting on her groundbreaking career, Hillgrove revisits the evolution of Bay Area filmmaking…as well as the deeply personal losses that have shaped her life. Vivien’s Wild Ride is a poignant exploration of resilience, artistry, and what it means to truly see both in cinema and in life.”

Something that we don’t celebrate but that’s important comes from a blog written by Cameron Trimble:
The Civil Rights Movement started in a moment like this. The labor movement did too. So did movements for women’s voting rights, disability rights, LGBTQ dignity, and protecting the environment. Time and again, people realized that staying silent would only make things worse.
Please take a moment to reflect on what changes, primarily driven by legislation, you have witnessed in your lifetime. When women gained the right to vote, 1920, my own mother was a teenager. This year, our youngest grandchild, Fiona, is learning to weld and planning on studying firefighting this summer in a special camp only for young women. She is a teen.
See the ParishScope and Monday Links Email for Zoom Info.
On this third Sunday after Pentecost, we'll reflect on Jesus' assertion that his disciples have been given the authority to heal, spending time in prayer for the healing of our world, our nation, our communities, our relationships, our loved ones, and ourselves. The service will include opportunities to receive individual prayers of healing and anointing.
Tim K. Murphy will accompany this week’s hymns and provide this week’s Prelude and Postlude. We’ll have music from our Choir and Bell Choir led by Jeffrey Frederic Paul. Guest musician Terence Molloy will join the choir on double bass. Dea Harrell will be this week’s Liturgist and Pastor Jen will lead the service along with Rev. Barry Cammer. Childcare will be available during the service for children ages 2 and up.

As we continue our Pentecost series, “For the Common Good,” we’ll explore a story from the gospel of Matthew. In the story, Jesus says, “Go and learn what this means, ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice’” What does that mean? And how does it relate to who Jesus eats and drinks with, and who he calls as a disciple? We’ll consider the tables we share and the company we keep. And finally, we’ll find ourselves welcomed to Christ’s table, invited to be recipients of God’s merciful love, as we share in Holy Communion.
Tim K. Murphy will accompany this week’s Hymns and provide music for this week’s Prelude, Communion Distribution, and Postlude.

“The experience of aging is itself a doorway to spiritual practice, one that transcends any particular religion or faith”
—Lewis Richmond
Please join us for a Spectrum on Sunday, May 31st 11:30-12:10 PM. The Spectrum will provide a brief overview of the book, Aging as a Spiritual Practice, by Lewis Richmond, along with an interactive conversation around several key concepts explored in the book.
As Richmond points out, we all are aging! Richmond brings his own Buddhist beliefs and practice to this book of reflections to offer, in his own words, “a variety of spiritual practices to the phenomenon of aging.”
We welcome folks of all ages and life stages to attend this Spectrum and to consider joining a book discussion group that will begin in June and continue for six weeks (attendance at every session is not required). A proposed outline of topics for six weekly meetings will be shared at this Spectrum.
Book discussion group: For folks who wish to take a deeper dive, a book discussion series focused on the book, “Aging as a Spiritual Practice: Rumination Conversation,” will be offered weekly in June and early July on Zoom.
It will not be necessary to have read the book in order to participate in the Rumination Conversation, but it will be helpful. The book will not be discussed cover to cover. Portions of the book to be explored each week will be announced a week in advance. Spiritual practices provided by Richmond will be tried each week, as well.
People who are interested in joining the Rumination Conversation group will be able to sign up on May 31st or can email Rachel (if you don’t have Rachel’s email please reach out to Jacob in the office).
On Trinity Sunday we celebrate and explore the mystery of the divine. What might it mean to be created in the image of a triune God? We’ll also look at Jesus’ commissioning of the disciples in Matthew 28, when Jesus says he’s been given “all authority in heaven and on earth.” What is the nature of Jesus’ authority, and what does it mean for those who are called to baptize and teach in Jesus’ name? Jeffrey Frederic Paul will lead us through this week’s Hymns with music offerings from The ACC Choir and Bell Choir. Pastor Jen will preach and lead this week’s service. Elena Caruthers will serve as Liturgist and light the Prayer Candles. Childcare will be available during the service for children ages 2 and up.

"On Sunday, people from ACC shared stories of service. Now it’s your turn! Share a story about one way you serve or volunteer in the wider community, using your Spirit-given gifts for the common good. You might share how you came to be aware of the particular gift you have that is used for this service, how you learned of the opportunity, and how this particular work of service is life-giving to you...how it lights you up, offers fulfillment, and/or connects to your faith.”

Yes, it is the month of graduations, Mother’s Day, Cinco de Mayo, Memorial Day, etc. etc.
But here is something that we don’t celebrate but that may be more important than all of the above rolled into one, and it comes from a blog written by Cameron Trimble:

On this final Sunday of Eastertide, and the third Sunday of Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Heritage month, we will observe PAAM Sunday, celebrating the leadership of Pacific Islander and Asian American churches and people. As we lament the division and suffering of the world, we will remember the story of the Ascension of Christ, looking for the wisdom this ancient story carries forward for today about power and authority. We will also read some words of encouragement for the early church from 1 Peter 4 & 5 about resistance and power.

"Be still and know that I am God"
- Psalm 46:10
Please plan to join us as we gather in meditative contemplation from 10:00 until 11:00 on Saturday in the Sanctuary.
On May 14 we’ll host the community for a talk by Andrea Pezel of Artichokes and Aging. "Layers of Aging: Myth vs. Reality" challenges common assumptions about aging and shows that many negative outcomes are preventable with the right planning. It debunks myths around dementia, hospitalizations, falls, aging at home, and legal preparedness, emphasizing that these risks are often manageable rather than inevitable. The talk highlights practical steps like routine health screenings, medication reviews, home safety modifications, and completing legal documents. It also underscores the high cost of care and the importance of early planning. Overall, the message is that aging well requires proactive decisions rather than luck, and small actions today can greatly improve independence and quality of life.

Discussion Topic: Our Other Mothers
”Mother Earth, Mother Nature, Mother Tongue, Motherland, Mother Church…
We are people of many mothers! Share about one of your “other mothers” and how they have mothered you well.”
On this sixth Sunday of Eastertide we will observe "Mothering Sunday," a day to celebrate the divine feminine and the godly work of mothering, carried out by people (and animals!) of all genders in many different ways…from raising children, to caring for creatures and creation, to taking bold stands for justice and peace. In John 14, as Jesus bids his disciples farewell, he pleads with them to keep his commandments and promises to send the Spirit of truth to abide with them, to be near as they live in the love he has shown them. From Jesus’ words, along with Paul’s from Acts 17 about the God in whom “we live and move and have our being,” we will draw inspiration for the work of mothering. We'll make space for the grief that some carry on this day, but focus on the hope of abundant life we find in our abiding Mother God.
Jeffrey Frederic Paul will lead the ACC Choir with guest narrators Nick Crump and Susan Russell. Chieko Chambers and Linda Young will provide this week’s Offertory. Pastor Jen will lead this week’s service and Dudley Thompson will serve as Liturgist. Childcare will be available during the service for children ages 2 and up

"It’s May, let’s talk flowers! Can you, and do you, buy yourself flowers? Do you enjoy receiving flowers as a gift? We sometimes think of flowers as feminine…why do you think that is?"
