September is recognized as National Suicide Prevention Month in the U.S., a time to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and promote help-seeking for those at risk of suicide. Join us on Sunday, September 6th, for worship when we will explore a depiction of mental health crisis and care in our scripture. Rev. Maddie gives this content note so that folks for whom this is a tender topic can make the best choices for themselves about how to engage with worship.

More about National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month 2026:

The month is dedicated to:
<ul><li>Raising awareness of suicide as a preventable cause of death.</li><li>Educating the public about warning signs and risk factors.</li><li>Encouraging open conversations about mental health.</li><li>Connecting people to crisis resources and treatment.</li></ul>
Why September?
The timing aligns with a period of heightened risk for young people returning to school, when suicide rates among 15–24-year-olds peak in September and October. This makes it a strategic time for outreach and prevention efforts.
Key Dates in September:
<ul><li>September 8 – 988 Day: A Day of Action to promote the 988 Suicide &amp; Crisis Lifeline&nbsp;<a href="https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&amp;&amp;p=e9e2f8ee86f47a668972eea3a4c6f45d73d4f17e8eebb0ef2a764cd07f7060eaJmltdHM9MTc4Nzg3NTIwMA&amp;ptn=3&amp;ver=2&amp;hsh=4&amp;fclid=1107a72f-246c-60c1-09a5-b001252f6122&amp;u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly85ODhsaWZlbGluZS5vcmcvcHJvbW90ZS1uYXRpb25hbC1zdWljaWRlLXByZXZlbnRpb24tbW9udGgv&amp;ntb=1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Lifeline</a>.</li><li>September 10 – World Suicide Prevention Day: A global day to remember those affected, raise awareness, and direct treatment to those in need&nbsp;<a href="https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&amp;&amp;p=e9e2f8ee86f47a668972eea3a4c6f45d73d4f17e8eebb0ef2a764cd07f7060eaJmltdHM9MTc4Nzg3NTIwMA&amp;ptn=3&amp;ver=2&amp;hsh=4&amp;fclid=1107a72f-246c-60c1-09a5-b001252f6122&amp;u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly85ODhsaWZlbGluZS5vcmcvcHJvbW90ZS1uYXRpb25hbC1zdWljaWRlLXByZXZlbnRpb24tbW9udGgv&amp;ntb=1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Lifeline</a>.</li></ul>

Join us for a special screening of The Cameraman&nbsp;(1928; 1h, 16min), starring Buster Keaton, with LIVE musical accompaniment!
Hopelessly in love with a woman working at MGM Studios, a clumsy man (Buster Keaton) attempts to become a motion-picture cameraman to be close to the object of his desire. Buster was gadget oriented, and he expertly weaved a motion picture camera into a plot containing a pretty girl, a few jealous rivals, an organ grinder’s monkey, and a battle in Chinatown to control it. Made in 1929, it was made at MGM studios and turned out so well that MGM used it to train future comedy directors.
Richard Hughes will provide some background on the film and then accompany the film on the piano as we enjoy this silent treasure. Movie snacks will be provided.
About the presenter: As a boy, Richard got hooked on the Keystone comedies shown on public TV and, years later, he learned the “Mood Music” used to accompany silent movies. He is currently traveling throughout New England presenting his programs at libraries, schools, and other venues. These silent films are fun to watch and a great way to experience our past.
