Underground Church Worship Service (Usually every 3rd Saturday, through June)
Next Gathering will be March 28, 10:30am in the Sanctuary
Underground Church is a unique and dynamic gathering that combines the intimacy of Jesus' early community with creative and inventive worship experiences. In the warmth and safety of community we explore the scriptures, live out the questions through discussion, and share innovative rituals that bring us closer to each other and to our still-speaking God. Together we create the unity of spirit that helps us find God's presence in the messy and beautiful experience of living today. All are welcome!
"The Tears of Things: Prophetic Wisdom For an Age of Outrage" Zoom Lenten Study Continues March 25 at 7:30 pm
How do we live compassionately in a time of violence and despair? What can we do with our private disappointments and the anger that we feel in such an unjust world? These are the questions many of us carry on our hearts. This Lent, we will gather to explore them with Franciscan friar, Richard Rohr, as he turns to the writings of the Hebrew prophets to offer us a path forward today.
Join Rev. Ann for three Zoom sessions (Wednesday evenings March 11,18, 25 @7:30pm) to explore what this ancient wisdom has to teach us in our own time of outrage and heartbreak. We encourage you to read the book to prepare for this study. You can order it online HERE or through your favorite bookstore

We look forward to taking this Lenten journey together

ONGOING EVENTS
Weekly Labyrinth Walks:
Wednesdays 11am-1pm in the Sanctuary
Take your soul for a walk on the labyrinth. We are pleased to offer labyrinth walks each Wednesday as a chance to connect with your soul in our beautiful sanctuary.
The labyrinth is an ancient spiritual tool , a mode of “walking prayer” that invites us to go deeper in our walk with God. Our labyrinth, modeled on one in Chartes Cathedral in France, sits as the center of our Sanctuary, a constant metaphor for our spiritual lives. Just like the labyrinth, our lives are not linear, but filled with twists and turns. Sometimes we make great progress, and other times we feel we are going backwards. But if we trust in the path we will find our selves in the center: the heart of God. All are welcome to take their souls out for a walk... no experience necessary!
You can CLICK HERE to find out more about walking the labyrinth. Check out this lovely write up on our labyrinth on Baristanet in the Spring of 2014.
