*Covenant Love is the doctrine of this church.
The quest for truth is its sacrament,
And service is its prayer.
To dwell together in peace,
To seek knowledge in freedom,
To serve humankind in fellowship,
Thus do we covenant with each other.
*Hymn of Praise From all that dwell below the skies
Let songs of hope and faith arise
Let peace, goodwill on earth be sung
Through every land, by every tongue.

*Song of Blessing #1053 How Could Anyone?
How could anyone ever tell you
You were anything less than beautiful
How could anyone ever tell you
You were less than whole
How could anyone fail to notice
That your loving is a miracle
How deeply you’re connected to my soul.

Service Notes
Today, 40% of our offering will go to The California Women’s Law Center. The California Women’s Law Center (CWLC) has served as a unique advocate in California, working in collaboration with allies to protect, secure, and advance the comprehensive civil rights of women and girls. At least 75% of legal services clients in California are women and their children, a staggering client base with diverse and complex needs. The CWLC serves women - with a particular emphasis on low income women and girls - in difficult situations when their legal rights are being
denied.
