In this final sermon of our series: Lessons in the Leaves, we dive into the story of Jesus cursing the fig tree. Why does Jesus do this? It seems like such an odd thing for him to do. Is there a lesson he was teaching people in that moment? Could that lesson still resonate with us today?

In addition, this was CONFIRMATION SUNDAY. At 18:51 you can hear a little about each of our confirmands.

AND, on this Sunday, we also said good-bye to Laura Clapp, our choir director. At 25:40 you can hear about the impact Laura has made on our community and her plans for this fall.
