On this Sunday after Thanksgiving, we will explore the nature of gratitude as we experience it in these unsettled times. Worship Weavers Laura Horn and Hayley Owens offer an hour of community wisdom, featuring the voices from our congregation, sharing their insights. All are welcome!
Would you like to light the chalice for community worship? Great! Everyone is welcome to serve as the chalice lighter. Sign up for a Sunday here. You will be contacted with instructions on how to record a video of your self/family/household lighting the chalice for our weekly worship service.
We would love to have you light the chalice!
