    You may join Congregational Church of Boothbay Harbor in person or online for worship Sundays at 10 AM. Face masks are now required for everyone. We will be passing the Friendship Folders at the beginning of the service for everyone to sign in case contact tracing is necessary. Childcare is available. If you wish to continue worshiping from home, you may live stream at www.congochurchbbh.orgFacebook, or tune into BRTV, channel 7 or 1301 for Spectrum subscribers. 

    Sunday, Oct. 10, join us as we continue to discover and grow with our new settled pastor, Rev. Todd Weir. Last week Rev. Todd explored of Psalm 8, “In older translations of Psalm 8, God gives humans dominion of the earth. That word has caused a lot of trouble, leading some to think we can do what we want with the earth. We can cut all its trees for lumber, suck oil from the ground with no worries about the air and atmosphere, and strip mine for its economic value. I much prefer this translation – God gives us ‘stewardship’ of the earth. Our stewardship over things is more like gardeners than kings. We must properly locate ourselves, or we will mess everything up. We are a little lower than angels, but we are prone to error if we get hung up on the hierarchy. We must beware when we think being a little lower than angels makes us masters of this little universe without regard for the rest of life. After all, Jesus said the last shall be first, and the first shall be last, so being near angelic shouldn't make us too cocky about our stewardship responsibilities.”
