“April Fools! Lessons from Childhood”
Reflection by Tatum Barnes
This Sunday, please join us for a relaxed, multi-generational service featuring the youth of North Chapel. Children will share their musical talents, artistic inspiration, and sense of humor.
The reflection will be given by Director of Spiritual Exploration, Tatum Barnes. Tatum has been facilitating conversations with the North Chapel kids about the divide between children and grown-ups, and he's excited to report back to the congregation his findings. What can we learn from our community's youngest? What gifts from our childhood can we unwrap regardless of our age?
The kids involved will be Pluto & Sam Beirne-Freiman, Elliot & Isla Johnson, Ella & Skye McEntyre, Nicasio & Santiago Rondeau, Lily Wolfe and Laszlo Zsoldos.
Service Coordinator - David Freiman

Monthly Reflection Themes
Worship Theme for March 2025
Strength
“After the shattering, all that remains is another ordinary day.” from In The Bleak Season by By Donna Moriarty.
Strength can mean staying centered, or being true to yourself by using skills and patterns that keep you connected to the world. It can also mean building up from your foundation, recognizing the roots you have grown.

Discipline and the Passionate Fire
Reflection Rev. Dr. Leon Dunkley
Far above us, in outer space, Dr. McCoy of Star Trek fame was boiling over with rage. Spock turned to McCoy, dispassionately and said, “Really, Doctor McCoy, you must learn to govern your passions. They will be your undoing.” What are the merits of being dispassionate? When is it appropriate to do otherwise? Is it possible to be disciplined in the tending of the passionate fires within us?
