ONLINE SUNDAY SERVICE:
10:30 AM Water Wisdom – Environmental Interconnectedness
In order to care for the health of ourselves and our Community, we're going online!
The worship service will begin at 10:30 am.
To Participate in Sunday Services:
You will need access to a phone and/or a computer
For audio and visual, join the Zoom Meeting at https://zoom.us/j/905212638

We are sad to lose the in-person part of our community, but believe a "Stay away AND Stay together" approach will help us continue to stay spiritually close when we can't be physically.
