RE Corner:
We welcome children of all ages to join us before the service – for our weekly RE Gathering – from 10:15-10:45 to share a youth-led chalice lighting, share our Joys & Sorrows ritual & learn about the Pagan origins of Easter (and the bunny, too!).
You can access this with the same link for the 11 am service.
We need volunteers Collecting Willow Branches for our Playscape!
Preliminary planning and construction is beginning to take shape on our Nature-based Playscape project. For part of Phase I of this grand design, we are starting work on the Willow Tunnel. This is a time-sensitive aspect of the project, as willow is coming into bloom right now, and we need to harvest the branches while they are still supple and bendable, and before they have too many blossoms on them. And we need your help! For more info, or to sign up to collect willow branches, please go here.
Crafts & Activities Galore
Come by and check out the latest activity offerings and gifts from our beloved Judy Rishel, nestled in the pink RE box out front. Find an Easter-themed craft, in addition to rainbows and scavenger hunts. Enjoy!
Fellowship Engagement:
Beginning Wednesday, April 7th @ 7pm, David Marshak will be leading an every other week, 3-session discussion group of the seminal book, How to Be an Antiracist. …”An essential book for anyone who wants to go beyond an awareness of racism to the next step of contributing to the formation of a truly just and equitable society.” Link can be found by going to the Fellowship Engagement page on our website, or by clicking below.
