At this time we need to be, we are called to be:
- the beacon of hope within our own faith community and beyond.
- about hope and action vs helplessness and fear.
- welcoming at this critical time when people are searching for meaning and purpose, determining what that will look like and help each other deepen our faith.
- in conversation with each other, deepen our connections and to be connected in action.
- aware on the financial front.
How will we make this happen? Our First Hour Conversations are coming back! We invite and encourage everyone to join us on the following Sundays from 9 am-10 am in the Sanctuary (child care will be provided).
