Upcoming Events - November, 2019

Yes, St. Nicholas will visit us again at a pancake breakfast, a nearly two decade-long tradition of the Men of Westminster! Children come meet St. Nicholas and enjoy a morning of food, fellowship, and fun. KidsJAM: come have breakfast before your rehearsal! Questions? Contact Burt Rothenberger.

Stewards of Children is a training that teaches adults how to prevent, recognize, and react responsibly to child sexual abuse. This free program is designed for parents, organizations that serve youth, and individuals concerned about the safety of children. RSVP to Deb Ryan at the Crime Victims’ Center of Chester County, Inc.

Join us for a service of gratitude in song, prayer, and word. This multi-faith service is followed by light refreshments and an outreach family activity. It's sponsored by the West Chester Religious and Spiritual Council. All are welcome. Questions? Contact Dan Krewson at Calvary Lutheran Church or Christine Campbell at Temenos Church.

Come enjoy an evening of music with Joy Ike in Westminster's sanctuary! There will be a free-will offering at the event. All seating is general admission. Polished and precise, yet buoyed with an airy grace, on Bigger Than Your Box Joy Ike paints with a broad palette that defies easy categorization. The Nigerian-American, Philadelphia, PA-based artist crafts music at turns soaring and plaintive, draped around a voice all dusky suede. Fiery, free, and immediately arresting, Ike possesses a powerful instrument which she wields with humble virtuosity. As warm and beautiful as the lovely tape hiss on an old jazz record, Bigger Than Your Box leaves the listener uplifted, perhaps a little teary-eyed, and very much satisfied. joyike.com

Presbyterians, particularly those associated with Princeton Seminary, played a key role in national debates about slavery and race before the Civil War, and helped establish the American Colonization Society and the country of Liberia as a way to solve America's problems with slavery and race. After the Civil War, Presbyterian struggles with the many afterlives of slavery took various forms and continue into the present. These sessions led by Rev. Dr. Gordon Mikoski will dig into Presbyterian imagination around issues of slavery and race in the past, in the present, and the future.
