Oct 4, 2020. Join us in worship as we see that God has invited us to a great feast! Will you say "Yes!"? The weeklong symposium, "The Great Awakening Meets a Just Awakening", wraps up with this worship service, with a sermon preached by Canon Carrie Headington from the Episcopal Diocese of Texas. We also sing - for just the second time - a new hymn composed by Rev. Dr. Paul Detterman for this symposium.
It is the 250th commemorative anniversary since the death of George Whitefield, and it is also time for another look at systemic racism. Throughout the week we are examining the history of the church in America as a partner in racism, and looking to the future so the church can become a partner in obliterating racism.

Rev. Dr. Sara Singleton is the pastor at Old South Presbyterian Church in Newburyport, MA.
Old South was founded in 1756 as a home base for itinerant power preacher, George Whitefield (who preached to as many as 25,000 people on Boston Common). But it's not a museum; it's a living church with vibrant membership, as you'll discover when you listen to these sermons.
If you are ever near Newburyport, Mass. on a Sunday morning, please join us for worship. Come as you are; all are welcome!
