Andrew Millard How might we consider spirituality to be like a magnificent tree? Its roots are sunk deep into the ground, it provides shelter to countless smaller creatures, and its branches stretch toward the sky to better drink of the sunlight. What, then, is religion? Is it like mistletoe, sucking the life out of the tree on which it grows as a parasite? Or is it like an arborist, carefully and diligently tending the tree so that it may grow and flourish? What: We are pleased to offer multi-platform services, both in-person and on Zoom. Forum take place at 9:30 a.m., and Children’s RE take place at 11:00 a.m. Nursery care will be available during service.
