Ingathering
Join us for this kickoff to the church year! During this service we will celebrate Water Communion ritual. Please bring a small amount of water from a place that is special to you, whether it is far away, nearby, or your own home. The combined water is symbolic of our shared faith coming from many different sources. We will combine this water, bless it, and later (after boiling!) use it for blessings such as baptisms and child dedications. This service also begins our celebration of the church Season of Creation, recognizing our interconnectedness with the earth and all things in the entire universe. This church season will continue through on October 4. -
