This Sunday, March 23, at 10:30 am,
“Blessed Be the Longing”
Rev. Frank Clarkson preaching, with Joanna Fortna, Kristie Colton, and music by Gina McKeown and our church choir. Spiritual wisdom teaches that listening to your longings can lead to depth and wholeness. So why do we avoid them? Opening up to longing can bring us into a more generous and openhearted space, which we’ll explore this Sunday. Come join us, in person or on Zoom!
Vespers in Lent, Wednesdays at 6 pm
During this season we offer this quiet service for evening in our candlelit sanctuary, followed by a simple meal. If you’d like to participate in the service or help with the meal, you can sign up here.
