Seeking the Spirit:

Rather than a reading, we'll try something a little different this week: a meditation video. This may sound familiar to you, as it's a piece we usein worship occasionally (#1009 in Singing the Journey ).

Building Community:

This Sunday, our kids will be having a visit from the Monroe County Humane Association and will be bagging pet food for the Back to Basics Project.  The back to basics project helps to make sure that people are able to care for their basic pet's food needs and assist them especially when mobility or finances make that difficult.  The need is growing and so is their reach both within Monroe county and beyond.  If anyone wants to make a donation or find out how they could get involved:
