A sermon by Rev. Rebecca White Newgren at Second Congregational UCC / First Presbyterian PCUSA Church of Rockford, Illinois
“Our decision today is whether or not we are going to allow God to use us in Her adventure of creation. God is still creating, making all things new, and we have the opportunity to join Him, to align with God in this world and create. Create love. Create peace. Create joy. Create avenues for one another that once seemed closed. Create a means to thrive for those who struggle with their basic needs. Create community for those who have been cast away.” -Rev. Rebecca White Newgren
