Donna, It was very moving to hear about how rituals have helped ease you through some difficult life transitions. For me, it’s relatively recent that I want to participate in the rituals that most people do automatically–like, this year, we strung Christmas lights in our house.  And, you may have noticed the King’s Cake (with the babies) that was there last Sunday?  I’ll go ahead and attribute that new comfort with rituals, being able to have them in my own life on my own terms, and being able to enjoy that.

Steve, the song you performed from the musical you had written was also very interesting and thought provokin.’  As always, beautifully performed.

Glad you two are back around, you were missed!  Cool that your daughter came too.

11:00 AM – 1:00 PM – Tap Dancing
Join Glorian in Hope Chapel and “tap” into your inner child through dancing – tap dancing! Wear clothes you can move in, and hard-soled shoes, if you don’t own actual tap or jazz shoes, and bring a towel, and a cane (or long stick).

Sunday:
9:00 AM – Hope Chapel – Choir Rehearsal.
10:00 AM – Sunday Service: A People So Bold
It takes tremendous courage to seek out a new church and a new way of being religious. Rev. Marcia Shannon leads a lay-supplied sampling of sermonettes from members of our own congregation. They will give witness to what they sought here, and what they have found.
