Sunday Service


"Celebration Sunday"

led by Rev. Laurel Gray


This Sunday we’ll continue our celebration of the joy of being in community and the power of pooling our resources to create something more beautiful than any one could create on their own. We’ll go over the goals for this year’s pledge campaign and the power of mutual flourishing.


This service will be held in the sanctuary and on Zoom:
