The "parish news" portion of The Banyan Tree will return the week of January 18. If you have questions or articles to include, please reach out to our administrator, Puna Coldwell, in the office at
Rev. Libby also will be taking some vacation time, from Dec 28 - Jan 13. The Rev. Alison Dingley will preach and celebrate at our Sunday services on Jan 3 and Jan 10.

May the beginning of 2021 be joyous and refreshing for all!
