Community Corner

Happy Father’s Day! We want to acknowledge all the men in our parish and circle who contribute so greatly to the lives of younger people around them, whether that is your own children, other kids in your family, young friends or another connection. The ways in which you care for these children are valuable and important, and they last beyond childhood. Fathers and father-figures play a critical role in the growth and engagement of our young people. Thank you for all you do!

Our next Community Dinner is on Saturday, June 27. We need volunteers to help with set up, dinner service, and clean up! Doors open at 4:30 and the meal is served at 5:00pm.   Come and enjoy a delicious meal and good conversation with other guests. Sign up to help on the board in the side entrance to the church, or online at https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0B4CABAF28A5FCC70-64545419-june

Understanding Pride: A Milestone of Grace and Justice Pride Month is rooted in a history of overcoming deep isolation and shame. It began as a movement to reclaim the fundamental human right to live authentically without fear of violence or rejection. When we mark Pride Month as a church community, we are acknowledging that history and celebrating the diverse family God has gathered here. We pray for celebrations across our world that uphold human dignity, and we reaffirm our hope that every member of our community is fully known, deeply loved, and an essential part of who we are.
