Flooded with Love – A Valentine’s Day Service

In this intergenerational service, join us as we make the old stories of floods – central to the mythology of many cultures around the world – into something new. As waters rise around us, how do we human beings flood the world with our own divine love? We’ll take the kids on a journey, as our community rallies to survive the age-old experience of the flood, and then gleans lessons from it: lessons about being stewards of the natural world around us, about leaving no-one behind, and about listening to and learning from each other, including the youngest and smallest voices among us.

This will be a fun, interactive, music-filled service, that will also include moments of quiet and contemplation for those who need them. Childcare provided, and kids will be treated to a Valentine-making party after the play. Led by ministry candidate Reilly Yeo.
