Sunday Service
Air Communion

Sunday, March 8th
10:30am
Join us in person or Zoom!
Air, one of the four elements, is the only one we can't actually see. But we sense it with our eyes, hearing and touch. We will explore the ways we know air, and then as a communion together we will take a collective breath, honoring this essential element of life.
Little Free Pantry - this Sunday is our food collection for the Little Free Pantry! Please bring cans of soup, stew, meat and fish. We also need crackers, cereal and peanut butter. Thank you!
