On Sun, March 22, 10 AM, Pastor Jay Sterns will present a sermon entitled “Living the Journey toward Wholeness” for the Unitarian Universalists of the Chester River, 914 Gateway Dr., Chestertown.
The human experience can be viewed as a pilgrimage that embraces the whole of oneself: one’s mind, body, spirit, and emotions, none of which are immune from injury and illness in their many forms. Beyond these vulnerabilities, however, there is the Journey of Hope and Discovery, which includes the invitation to live into both mystery and paradox.
This morning we will work with a mythical story, name several wisdom points, and recognize practices that can support and sustain each of us as Pilgrims on our Journey Toward Wholeness.
Jay is a retired United Methodist Minister, having served many years as a Pastoral Counselor, Consultant, and Hospital Chaplain. He is currently Director of Spiritual Care, Pathways. Throughout the latter decades of his ministry, Jay has explored distinctions between traditional religions and viable spirituality. He acknowledges that over the past twenty-five years, the wisdom of Native American Spirituality and the courageous pursuit of healing through The Recovery Movement in relation to addictions have become his primary teachers.
Religious programs for children and youth will be available, as well as childcare for infants and toddlers. Please call 410-778-3440 for more information.
