The Beloved Community: A Shared Calling

Join us with special guest, Senator Chris Van Hollen, for this interfaith service bringing together faith leaders and artists from many traditions – Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Unitarian Universalist, and Zoroastrian – to honor Dr. King’s vision of the Beloved Community.

Through music, dance, prayer, reflection, and Dr. King’s own words, we gather across traditions to affirm justice, dignity, and peace.

Participants are welcome to bring donations such as maseca (corn flour), cooking oil, 2 lb bags of rice, 2 lb bags of beans, and diapers (sizes 5 and 6). Notes of encouragement will be included with each bag.

We will be collecting donations of maseca, oil, rice, beans, and diapers before and after service on January 11 and January 18 to support the youth day of service on January 19.

You are welcome to join us!

Join us after the service for a meal and to celebrate our successful Rooted and Rising annual fund campaign for the coming congregational year, July 1, 2026-June 30, 2027.
Our goal is two-fold this year:

To raise $1 Million to help sustain the operations of our congregation in its 75th year and to plant the seeds which will flourish in the next 75 years!
100% participation from members and pledging friends. Your pledge of financial support (no matter how large or small) is greatly appreciated and sorely needed!

During the worship service this week, we will participate in a ritual of collective generosity. Don’t miss this opportunity to feel the support of this beloved congregation as we come together to demonstrate the importance of our collective commitment to the mission and future of Cedar Lane.
Be sure to look for and participate in collectively creating a special art project celebrating Rooted and Rising!
