Theology Uncorked
Tuesdays, through July 30, 6-7:30pm, meet at Cafe Sicilia, 6801 Rufe Snow Dr. The book for this session is Inspired by Rachel Held Evans. Bring a bottle of wine and join Pastor Lauren as we take a deeper look at our faith and how we are called into action to share Christ's love with the world.

All are welcome to join us as we make quilts and shawls for persons who might need to feel the warmth of prayers around them. We also provide afghans for Baby Baptisms.
We meet the fourth Monday of each month in DAC 414, 9:30-11am. We bring our machines, or knit, crochet supplies. If your quilts or shawls are already completed, we pray over them, so they will be ready
to send out full of our love and prayers.
