A Bridge from Heart to Heart
The Annual Bridging Service
Rev. Leia Durland-Jones & Rev. Tim TemersonThere are many milestones to celebrate this Sunday at our annual Bridging Service. We will honor our graduating high school seniors and “bridge” them to young adulthood. Those who have achieved trade school, college, graduate school, or other career dreams are invited to let Rev. Leia know so you can be included in the service. Through songs, readings, and the ritual of Bridging, we will celebrate our interconnected community that is centered in love.

If you would like to have a joy or sorrow shared aloud during the worship service, please complete this form by 9AM Sunday morning.
