UCWC 10:00 am: Sunday Service: Humor in Church? – In-person & Live-stream.
Humor in Church? Rev. Dr. Gabi Parks Rev. Dr. Gabi Parks joins us to focus on the question of whether it is acceptable to use humor in church. Be ready for a lot of "LOL". The Reverend Dr. Gabriele Parks came to the United States as a (legal) immigrant from Germany in 1991, with her husband Roger and her then six-year-old twins. Well, the kids are 39 now, and obviously a lot has happened. Reverend Gabi discovered Unitarian Universalism in Columbia Maryland, where she joined UUCC in 1996. After serving in many volunteer roles at the church, she felt the call to UU ministry, and went to Lancaster Theological Seminary in 2001, where she received her Masters of Divinity after three years. Since then, she has served five congregations all over the United States, as an intentional interim minister; now called transition minister. In 2015, she went back to seminary, this time to Wesley in Washington DC, where she graduated with the Doctor of Ministry in the field of Narrative Theology.
She has served our congregation in York, Pennsylvania, until her retirement in February of 2019. She now serves four cats, her husband, and one rambunctious dog.
