Introduced by the Social Justice Committee in January 2023. Donate formula, which will be given to Galilee Center for distribution to their families with babies.
Why donate formula rather than money? Due to shortages, stores have been setting tight limits on the number of cans per purchase. Our donations help Galilee Center hand out more formula each month to families with babies who are unable to buy it on their own.

At the end of one year and the beginning of the next, we look back and wonder what we can let go from the year gone by and what we can carry forward into the months to come. Join us as we let the past burn away and call on love to guide the future.
Our on-going first Wednesday crafting time now includes a mix of skill sets including laughter, camaraderie & a break from routine. Mark your calendar to join us the first Wednesday of each month as we morph into broader directions beyond just painting rocks (which continues). Exploring Creativity is energizing. Bring your project, lunch & beverage & drop in between 11:30 - 2:00 to participate. No host; no RSVP needed; set-up/clean-up is shared; just roll on over & see what is born.

Join Rev. Ian and fellow congregants in this four session class. The class focuses on helping members who are interested in preaching a sermon or learning more about how sermons are created. It is designed to help people understand better what it is we do when we speak from the pulpit of our congregation, build some beginning skills in choosing topics and crafting sermons, and understand who we are speaking to and why.
