Nov. 2 – Rev. Pat Jobe: ‘The Mexican Day of the Dead’
A rollicking day of memory and celebration roughly coincides with Halloween and All Saints Day. The tradition holds that we can walk with death, laugh at death, even dance with death as it always hovers nearby. An extra table will be set up in the sanctuary to hold photos of our dearly departed and storytelling will be encouraged about those who no longer walk with us. Bring photos. Tell stories. Many traditions hold that they are always with us.
Pat will augment our Day of the Dead service this Sunday with a brief report on a lecture he heard Tuesday at Gardner-Webb University’s School of Divinity. A brilliant liberal scholar talked about how the ancient texts are badly misused by fundamentalists and people who advocate what they call “Biblical inerrancy.”
What, in fact, is in the texts is an ancient struggle to find a path of loving kindness recommended by both Jesus and Buddha. Who knew?
