Chalice Lighting:

Welcome
Chalice Lighting

I’d like to invite each of each who has brought a candle to come forward and light your candle while we sing “Come, come, whoever you are” three times.
Song and Candle Lighting: Come, come, whoever you are
Wandererer, worshipper, lover of leaving
Ours is no caravan of despair
Come, yet again come Continue reading

A Meeting for Business will follow lunch, for members and anyone else who would like to participate in the discussion and planning.

Often things do not go as planned. Sunday July 19, 2015 is one of those times. We will not be able to have a service on this Sunday. We are sorry if you were counting on this service or planning to visit. We will be at Audra on the August 2nd. We will be back at the PWA event Center on the 16th. There will be more services to look forward to in the future.
Until then remember …

Namaste,
