Sunday, May 9, 2021 -The Honorable Harvest and Other Intergenerational Concepts.
HYBRID Service* The Honorable Harvest and Other Intergenerational Concepts. As we make decisions today, how do we think about our connections to those who came before us and those who come after us? How do we learn from cultures and peoples who honor these connections more fully? Rev. Leslie Takahashi and Director of Religious Education Indigo Lewis will lead this service. We will also have a special honoring of parents—biological and chosen—as part of this on-campus experience.
Space is limited – RSVP to attend on campus HERE
We could use a few good volunteers to help with our outdoor services – check out volunteer opportunities HERE
