Sunday July 4, 2021  Dreamers, All: Striving Toward an Ideal   Rev. K. Hawbaker
What they dreamed be ours to do.  A legacy is a compelling drive to carry on and bring to fruition the dreams of our ancestors.  If we deeply examine the American Dream, we must acknowledge that it is not equally endorsed, espoused or realized.  An ideal can keep us focused on a goal, but we have such a long way to go.
How are we building the world we dream about?

Song of Affirmation (Chorus)		I am Willing  -Holly Near
I am open and I am willing		
To be hopeless would seem so strange
It dishonors those who go before us	
So lift me up to the light of change.
There is hurting in my family		There is sorrow in my town
There is panic in the nation	  There is wailing the whole world round.
		May the children see more clearly	May the elders be more wise
		May the winds of change caress us	Even though it burns our eyes
Give me a mighty oak to hold my confusion		Give me a desert to hold my fears	   
Give me a sunset to hold my wonder		Give me an ocean to hold my tears

Reading 	O beautiful for summer skies and waves of conversation
				-Garrison Keillor

Reading w Slides   	 Mt. Rushmore  - Clarence Major	in the New Yorker Magazine
