TODAY AT CEDAR RIDGE
You Can Run but You Can’t Hide: The Story of Jonah
Matthew Dyer, Lead Pastor
Today, we begin our Unbelievable Stories series by exploring the story of Jonah and the surprising truths found within this ancient, brilliantly crafted story. We’ll also lift our voices together for a Community Sing, celebrating joy and connection.
After the Service
Join us for a Community Potluck at the picnic tables. Everyone is welcome, whether or not you brought something to share! While we eat, help shape our September 27 celebration with your ideas, planning skills, or willingness to pitch in. Join the Impact Teams to connect your interests and gifts with opportunities to help shape projects at Cedar Ridge.

Our Bodies Keep the Score: A Story of Oppression
Matthew Dyer, Lead Pastor
Saturday, September 19, 9:00 – 11:30 a.m.
Burtonsville Day Parade
Join Cedar Ridge for a favorite Burtonsville Day tradition! We’ll bring up the end of the parade, picking up trash along the route while kids ride the hay wagon and toss candy to the crowd. It’s a fun, visible way to care for our community, keep Burtonsville beautiful, and share who we are with our neighbors. Sign up here and we will email more information soon.
Sunday Morning Book Study: Sundays at 8:45 a.m., in room 203
This group will meet most Sundays, currently discussing Love Thy Stranger, by New Testament scholar Bart Ehrman. Explore Jesus’ radical call to love those beyond our own circles through acts of compassion and care. For questions, or to confirm a meeting date, please contact Dave Martinsen davidmartinsen@yahoo.com. Everybody welcome!
The Criminal Justice Reform Team invites you to participate in a summer “book” club exploring The 1619 Project: A New Origin Story. This anthology of essays and poetry reframes American history by placing slavery and its enduring legacy at the center of the American story, inviting readers to consider how that history continues to shape American society today. While this work is not directly tied to issues of criminal justice, the CJRT picked this as a fantastic resource for learning and discussion.
There are multiple ways to engage with the material. You can read the book, listen to the audiobook or podcast (available on all major podcast platforms), or watch the related Hulu series. You are welcome to engage with any of these formats, to whatever extent you desire. Work through the material at your own pace during the summer and join us for a discussion and fellowship gathering planned for late August (details forthcoming).
Contact Sara at salimpert@gmail.com to join or for more information.
