We are thinking outside the box and outside the building on Sunday, March 22. Call the numbers provided below to join us for an hour of re-connection and encouragement.

We will smudge (have your sage or water ready), sing, dance (at home), share Talking Stick, make a group prayer tie, tell a story, exchange ideas, and care for each other… and all of it is part of our worship and devotion to our Creator.

Looking forward to “seeing” you at 1:30 p.m. on Sunday!
