In this service we will read Luke’s account of a sassy 12 year-old Jesus having a grand time in his “father’s house." Rev. Meyers' sermon “Home in the Diaspora” will examine the importance of having a spiritual homebase in the pilgrimage of our lives. A special invitation will also be extended to the congregation over the Christmas season.
