In Praise of Ugly and Useless Creatures
from Yes! We're Open: Living Faith with Needham UCC · host The Congregational Church of Needham
Everybody loves "charismatic megafauna"--you know, the "bright and beautiful," cute and cuddly animals, your pandas, elephants, and humpback whales. And it's not so hard to appreciate the useful animals, too, like cows and pigs. But what about the animals we don't understand and definitely don't like? What about mosquitos? Aye, there's the gospel rub. Because we're called to love everything God has made... and everyone. too. (Scripture: Job 39:13-18)The Congregational Church of Needham strives to be a radically Inclusive, justice-seeking, peace-making, love-affirming congregation of the United Church of Christ in Needham, MA. Join us for worship Sundays @ 10am LIVE! online via Zoom. Connection info at www.NeedhamUCC.org.
