To acknowledge the pain I sense many of us, in and beyond the Edwards community, carry but do not often acknowledge out loud, I recently chose a quote from Psalm 13 as the message to display on the sign out front.

This September we enthusiastically accepted an invitation to partner with other houses of worship and interfaith organizations to solemnly mark the 400th year since English colonists landed on Native shores in Massachusetts. There will be an online gathering to remember that event on Sunday, October 18th at 2:00 pm. A link with more information will be circulated before the online event.
