Community Insight Inspiration for Facing Life's Challenges
Sunday Platform Service
We call our humanistic religious services, which are held from 11 am to 12.30 pm, “platforms.” We include music, meditation, a presentation on a theme, and an open response period. The theme often raises a personal or political question. A Sunday School for children takes place at the same time.
We meet for the fundamental reasons that people attend any religious service:
- To inspire in us a sense of greater meaning and purpose
- To raise our spirits and feel hope in the possibilities for a better future.
- To strengthen our faith that people are essentially good, competent, loving, and lovable
- To experience a sense of community (for example, connection, mutual caring, and friendship)
- To gain the spiritual strength and skills to cultivate the best in life
It's my first time at WES: What Can I Expect? Where Should I Park?
Tapes and CDs of platforms are available on Sunday mornings at WES, or by calling 202 882 6650 between 9.30 am and 5.00 pm Monday through Friday. There is a charge of $5 for expenses.
