We have strong hopes and fears about the outcomes of this Election Day. And in the midst of our anticipation and trepidation, we try to remind ourselves that this too is one part of our lives; one part of our work and practice as a congregation, as the children remind us, of open minds, helping […]
It’s been two years since we first sang “Never Turning Back”, Pat Humphries’ simple anthem of encouragement, possibility and persistence. Our lives have gone on, our work has continued, and we haven’t turned back. But it hasn’t been easy. So, on this Sunday before Election Day 2018, we come together again and lift our voices […]

Families take many forms beyond partners and children. We all live in ours. Our family, however we understand it, is central who we are. Ministry is our response as a congregation to the needs and diversity of each other and the world. How might we envision this broad sense of Family Ministry together? Please share: […]
