NEWS & EVENTS

Sundays begin with Sunday School from 9:30 to 10:15 a.m. This Sunday, January 26, Ruskin Falls will continue working from Richard David Precht’s Who Am I? And If So, How Many?. We will pick up where we left off last time in our discussion of the relationship of feeling, emotion, and reason. Then we’ll turn to a new chapter, “Vienna: Ruling the Roost: What Is My Subconscious?” and a conversation regarding the work of Sigmund Freud.

Worship begins at 10:45 a.m.  You can access a livestream of the service by clicking the link above, or at the YouTube page. A video of each Sunday’s worship service will remain accessible on the church website throughout the week. Feel free to contact the church office for more details. (due to technical difficulties, there was no livestream of Sundays, January 5 and 12, 2025 worship service) We would delight in having you join us in-person!

Sunday, January 19, Ruskin’s sermon text will be 1st Thessalonians 2:1-13.

The hymns for this Sunday are #610, “O for a Thousand Tongues to Sing,” and #451, “Open My Eyes, That I May See.”

The sack-lunch gathering of the Cinephiles, a cinema-loving group, will be meeting in the Adult Sunday school classroom on Thursday, January 30 from 11:00a.m. to 1:00p.m. They will be watching You're in the Navy Now. A 1951 American war-comedy film about the United States Navy in the first months of World War II. The film was directed by Henry Hathaway and stars Gary Cooper as a new officer wanting duty at sea but who is instead assigned to an experimental project without much hope of success. It was released by 20th Century Fox and its initial release was titled U.S.S. Teakettle. Bring your lunch and join in the fun, all are welcome.

In October 2021, Ruskin published a book of sermons entitled, Metanoia and Other Sermons. The book can be ordered through Amazon, Barnes and Noble, or Wordsworth. You can find more information about the book at this link: Metanoia and Other Sermons

Unless otherwise designated, money given to our church is placed in what we call the General Fund, through which we cover our regular operating and mission expenses. We also have two special funds through which we fund our work. They are: the Audie Lee Jones Ministry Fund, for helping people in financial crisis toward courage, hope, and new opportunity; and the Building Fund, for tending to our building, grounds, and furnishings beyond regular upkeep and maintenance. To donate to these special funds, simply note on your check or envelope the fund you are giving to or you can donate through our website (click the “Donations” button).
