the virtual sol cafe: Valentine's means Love

In the spirit of Valentine's Day, on Sunday, February 11, the sol cafe met at Cafe Dabar for an evening on the theme of love. We read 1 Corinthians 13:1-13 as a backdrop to discussions on love, snacks and crafts, and the celebration of Communion, the Love Feast.

Ironically, we ended up looking at love only because, in a move rife with controversy hearkening back to the dark days of the Great Church Schism of 1054, we will be breaking away from the Revised Common Lectionary and going BACK to a verse we skipped two weeks ago -- the skipping of which was in itself a contentious move -- while helping out at the Salvation Army. This could lead to a real knock-down drag-out between the sol cafe lectionarians and the sol cafe free will players. Oh wait, did that verse say "Love is not sarcastic..."? Seriously speaking, here also are the RCL readings for this week:

February 11 - Sixth Sunday after Epiphany
Jeremiah 17:5-10
Psalm 1
1 Corinthians 15:12-20
Luke 6:17-26
