AFROMYSTIC is a groundbreaking, lyrical documentary that follows LGBTQ+ Yorùbá practitioners across Nigeria, Brazil, and the U.S. in their quest for post-colonial liberation through indigenous religion. Directed by Seyi Adebanjo, the film centers on four protagonists: Afro-Puerto Rican artist Tenjin Falase Ikeda, lesbian priestess Sojourner McCauley, transgender Candomblé priestess Iya Thiffany, and Seyi, a gender-nonconforming Nigerian. Through a blend of interviews, ritual footage, animation, and performance, AFROMYSTIC highlights Yorùbá stories such as deities that change gender or are born from same-sex couples, affirming the historical existence of LGBTQ+ people; and it reveals the vibrant spiritual lives of Yoruba’s Queer practitioners.

Ash Wednesday Service
Join us for a short, family-friendly Service of Ashes on March 5.
Ash Wednesday begins the season of Lent, a time when many Christians prepare for Easter by observing a period of fasting, repentance, moderation and spiritual discipline. Although Ash Wednesday has ancient roots, it does not appear in the rituals of The United Methodist Church or our predecessor denominations until the 20th century.
Ash Wednesday is a time for forgiveness for the ways we have failed to love eachother and to focus on our mortality.
Ashes are an ancient symbol. In Genesis, we read that God formed human beings out of the dust of the earth (Genesis 2:7). After expulsion from the Garden of Eden, the first human beings are told by God, “you are dust, and to dust you shall return” (Genesis 3:19 NRSV). The Hebrew word translated dust, is occasionally translated ashes elsewhere. Throughout scripture, ashes are part of rituals when people seek forgiveness and mourn their sin (see Numbers 19:9, 17; Hebrews 9:13; Jonah 3:6; Matthew 11:21, and Luke 10:13, among others).
As the ashes are placed on the forehead, words such as these are spoken: "Remember that you are dust and to dust you shall return," recalling God's words to Adam in Genesis 3:19, or “Repent, and believe the gospel” recalling the message of both John the Baptist and Jesus (Mark 1:15).
