Nov. 14 at 11 am; Community Worship: Holding History with an Open Hand

Often, when we try and make sense of our past as individuals and as a people, we grasp for answers and meaning. Join Rev. Leia in an exploration of how history is constantly unfolding around us and how we might do well to greet and hold it with open hands. Our November Social Action Collection for Hospital Meal Packets will be gratefully received.
