Pembroke Community Media Center has a Half-Hour Church Service for You




"Even more important than monetary contributions, is the time and caring that we give to one another," announces a parishioner during "The Deacon Moment."

This half-hour service is chock full of such thoughtful moments. Beginning with shoes and boots donated to comfort the feet of Boston's needy, Pastor Giragosian assisting a young girl lighting the candle on the altar, and a mother cradling her restless child; not a moment passes that we don't view some example of caring within the congregation itself.
 
It's the annual event, "Barefoot Sunday," at the First Church in Pembroke, Massachusetts.  Uncharacteristically gracing the alter is a substantial and colorful pile of new footwear destined to shod the feet of the city's less fortunate. 
The sermon is an entertaining litany of the funny things people do while waiting for an elevator car to arrive or a traffic light to change.  Pastor Giragosian uses those comical situations to ask what people do and can do while waiting for God.  The answer isn't much of a surprise, so I'll just tell you.  It's “look busy and be busy” caring and helping others.
