On this Sunday before Labor Day, Rev. Leia reflects on September’s ministry theme “The Path of Belonging.” What does it mean to “belong” and how does it feel in our bodies, minds, and spirits? How can our actions help create a community of belonging for us all, especially those who feel marginalized?
How can we support each other in our “longing to be” fully seen, heard, and appreciated for who we are and who we are becoming? Let’s explore together!
ORDER OF SERVICE
