Weekly Update

Weekly Update . . . Once again it is time for our annual Flower Communion. If you’ve never participated in this ritual, I think you’ll find it touching and beautiful. Each person is invited to bring a flower, branch or something showing spring’s awakening. We will gather them in a large vase as you come into the Sanctuary. Towards the end of the service each person will come forward and receive the gift of a flower from the vase. We will be sharing the love, the hope that spring brings. Focusing of Gifts of Love, we will also be welcoming new members this Sunday. The Martinsen-Burrell family has prepared a skit for us. And both the children’s choir and choir have special music for us!!  It’s a Service for All Ages . . . so come one, come all . . . and invite a friend along too. Look forward to seeing you!
