Announcements
In our recent community meeting, we spoke about beginning to meet together to create and carry our church life together. In this early stage, we may call it our Carrying Together Meeting. What we will do together and how often we will meet is wide open - it can be toward the creation of festivals, the organization of fun events, works to support the sacraments, or simply cleaning the basement. Anyone who is interested in this impulse to carry our church life together with creativity, ownership, and enthusiasm is warmly welcome to the meeting. Our first meeting will take place on Sunday, March 30th at 12:30, after the service and lunch.
