AN OFFERING OF THANKS

This film, also made by Kelly Stuart, was inspired by Thanksgiving. I try to take an adventure for each service, something related to the theme, and then i write the sermon based on that journey.. So, In November, Bobby and I went up to Plymouth rock, and Kelly gave me her little video camera to shoot some stuff on location at the Mayflower 2 and Plymouth Rock...amazing. Then we came back to the city and wrangled the incredibly telegenic Katie Barrett into being our 'on screen presence'...we had a profound day downtown at the Musuem of the Native American...and more, as you'll see. Did someone say, cookies?

It's incredible how the films have impacted the services...they really bring in the outside world, and stir up and deepen all the ideas of the theme...

This film was screened at the service on November 23rd, and our theme was GRATITUDE, inspired by Thanksgiving Day
