"We invite everyone to share communion around God's altar. 
We strive to be a welcoming and relevant Christian community doing what matters through prayer, worship, teaching, outreach, fellowship, and service.

reason by providing a safe place to respond to each other's needs,   
hurts, joys, and interests."

Sculpture Commissioned for Parish Hall 
By: David Wall

Long-time Resurrection parishioner and local artist, David Wall, is creating a metal and stained glass sculpture to span the center section of the long wall in the parish hall. The vestry gave approval for David's gift and design, which is a reflection of Leonardo da Vinci's iconic "Last Supper" painting. Each cross represents a different apostle placed in the same table order as in Leonardo's painting. 

The sculpture is scheduled to be installed at the beginning of Holy Week, and will be the backdrop for the Maundy Thursday service to be held in the parish hall.  Dimmable track lighting has already been installed in the parish hall ceiling to properly illuminate David's beautiful and moving piece of art. 

Thank you David Wall for your generous spirit and artwork that will define our new space for generations to come.
 

" Summer" in Winter Pics
February 23, 2018
 

People have been gathering in public spaces for ages, talking about life, philosophy, faith, doubt, and deep questions of meaning. Recently, many people are re-discovering the pub and tavern as a safe space to explore and express questions, learn from others, and engage with other traditions and perspective. Throughout time, profound insights have their origins paired with a pint. The pub is a space of freedom and a place to reflect on the technical layers of complexity in the drinks we imbibe and the philosophy and theology in which we share. 

Join us the second Tuesday of the month and bring your questions, curiosity, and readiness to engage and wrestle as we pursue the Divine in the seemingly least likely of places.
