 William Sloane Coffin, the great 20th-century preacher once said, "I think, therefore I am? Nonsense! I love, therefore I am," putting love at the center of our humanity. This week we continue on our journey with Paul's first letter to the Corinthians who wrote some of the most beautiful words about love in the 13th chapter. If you have time this week, read that chapter and ponder its meaning. Love will be our focus for our worship on Sunday.
Please call or email the Office if you want more information.

Amy Carter invites you to this informal gathering to share your stories of faith and your hopes for Mayflower Church. These conversations are holy, and provide Rev. Amy with a sense of our church’s history; and from those conversations we can work together to create a new future for Mayflower, UCC.
Candance Forette's Art is now in our fireside room! Candance has titled the show "Apology to Children." Through her art she challenges us to see and act for social justice. It's a very strong and evocative show. I encourage you to come by and take a moment with it during the week's office hours: Monday-Friday, 8:30-2:00 pm.
