Book Study on "The Serviceberry: Abundance and Reciprocity in the Natural World" by Robin Wall Kimmerer begins July 2  6:30 PM - 8:00 PM for 5 weeks in Simpson Room at Olivet Campus.   There is no assigned reading for the first meeting of The Serviceberry Book Study. The Serviceberry is not a Christian book, although the topic clearly aligns with our faith. To help ground our discussion in our Holy Scripture, the following are suggested readings to enrich our discussion.  

Join us Tuesday 6:30 - 8:00 pm in Parish Hall at St. Mark's Campus as we explore the topic of immigration.

These forums are designed to help us make sense of contemporary issues through the lens of faith. Come be part of an open, thoughtful conversation as we seek to live out God’s call to justice, mercy, and unity. All are welcome and dessert will be served!”

Join us at 5 PM in the Simpson Room at Olivet Campus for 6 consecutive Sundays to watch ROOTS the miniseries.  Each episode is about 1.5 hours.  Drinks & desserts are provided, please bring food to share for movie night!
