March 20 @ 11am; Community Worship: Hope is Our Open Door

ORDER OF SERVICE

Hope invites us not to despair, but to enter the future to answer the call to deepen our sense of the holy, our compassion for others, and our love for the gift of life. Rev. Linda invites us all to give ourselves to love, to find the spirit within and among us that opens the doors of our lives so that we may savor the precious miracle of being. We are thrilled to re-open our doors to fellowship and being in-person for worship.  This week’s community worship service will be offered hybrid for in-person and online congregants.   CLICK HERE for our safety protocols.
